In answer to OPs question, yes, new members can be depledged if they are a risk to the chapter. However, and this is what everyone has been going on about, we can't say if that is the appropriate measure in this case. Your daughter could be making a mountain out of a mole hill, or the chapter could be in free-fall, or one of a thousand points in between. As a college woman and a new sorority member, this is a good time for her to learn how to deal with political infighting and awkward situations herself.

I would continue to be a shoulder for your daughter, but do stay out of it and don't tell your daughter what to do about it. You could end up getting your foot in it and causing her and yourself a great deal of trouble.

But I can tell you with confidence that if the new members are partying so hard that it is causing a disruption to the chapter, their grades will suffer and the problem with resolve itself. And that's probably what the chapter is doing - waiting for the problem to resolve itself.

I really don't think you should make that statement unless you are privvy to the policies of every chapter at which the OP's daughter could possibly be a pledge.

To be fair, she did say that they CAN be depledged, not that they WILL be depledged. I think that's accurate.
