Removing a high ranking officer is a tricky proposition, especially a president. I dealt with this as chapter president and it was one of the worst parts of my collegiate experience.

I'm assuming you are a member of an NPC sorority? Or is this a local?

You should have in your chapter and national bylaws and procedures an outline of how to handle a problem. If there is a problem that should go to standards, you need to take it to standards whether you think it will help or not. You need to speak to the adviser, whether you think it will help or not. Not knowing the chain of command in your organization, I would assume next would be some kind of district officer. If you truly think you cannot go through standards and the local adviser first, you can go to the district officer. But you need to be sure you can really explain why you are going out of the established procedures and be ready for the consequences within your chapter. It is also possible that your district officer will listen and tell you to go to standards and the adviser to get the ball rolling, but you will at least know you have the support and backing of someone else.

If your chapter president is breaking rules and procedures, then someone does need to do something. She isn't above the law. Procedures and bylaws are there to protect everyone and the president of all people should be adhering to them.

That said, you may find yourself very unpopular if you try to make a push toward removing her. That isn't to say you shouldn't do so, but be prepared to suffer the consequences of doing the right thing for the present and future of the chapter.

Let us know how it goes.
