I would think that most orgs have a clause in their bylaws about drug use being a huge no-no.

If someone has a cocaine habit and was my sister, I wouldn't give a crap about pissing them off by confronting them about it. Who wants that associated with their letters? Who wants to see a friend delve into that sort of downward spiral?

So what are you supposed to do, just stand there and watch this person f up their life, damage your chapter, and possibly leave your sorority with a huge liability on their hands? What if she ODs in the house? If the sorority sisters (or fraternity brothers, whichever sex the person is) knew that they were using, and didn't do anything about it, there'd be a lawsuit in a minute. Heck, even if they didn't know she was using and she OD'd in the house or at a function, there'd still probably be major liability.

If a sister was doing coke, yes, i'd vote to terminate her membership in a minute, unless she was making a huge effort to get help with it. Doesn't mean that I'd never talk to her again or write her out of my life, but they've got bigger fish to fry than worrying about being in a GLO.

It's obviously a bigger problem than just a person or two at WVU, though, and there certainly must be things that can be done to try to change the overall atmosphere.
