I think that in the case where a doctor suspects a "crime" may have been committed they are required to report it to the police. Same as in domestic violence cases, etc.

Maybe. If hospitals are required to report certain things why is college given that information and why is any information given out when the person suspected of drinking is over the age of 21?
I know hospitals are required to report certain things like gunshots and suspected child abuse but I think they are breaking some sort of doctor patient privelege if they are giving out confidential information to a university administrator/greek advisor.
