I'm no lawyer, but I'm sure that the answer 'depends' on what type of legal theories are being advanced here. It might also have something to do with the state of torts law in Texas -- I understand that it's very favorable to defendants.

My general understanding from being a former executive officer of my chapter is that chapter officers, especially the pres. can be named in lawsuits -- criminal or civil.

Really, I have no problem with heads rolling over something like this if the chapter's actual pledge program was responsible for this (or any other official function of the chapter).
