The Rocky Mountain News in the last day or so detailed the consumption of alcohol she had at the Sigma Pi house - several beers, as well as the better part of an entire bottle of vodka - that, in addition to the rest of alcohol consumed at two other locations prior to Sigma Pi, indicates she drank the equivalent of 30-40 beers in one day. A frightening amount of alcohol.
Sigma Pi may well be a scapegoat in this incident, but, then again, Sigma Pi was not "lilly-white" in their behavior prior to this incident. Couple that to a story like this hitting national news, and there really isn't much that could be done to save the chapter. Simply from a PR standpoint, when something bad hits the news, it will be a death sentence to the chapter in question in almost every instance.
