advice for appealing probation / termination decision

[33girl]

The above is not me, but I could have written that exact post.

When a collegian says that she's never seen/never talked to/their chapter doesn't have an advisor, don't automatically respond as if she's recounting her meeting with Bigfoot. In a lot of instances, advisors are paper only if that, not because the chapter wants it that way, but because the boots on the ground just aren't there.
