It's eating me up inside. I don't know what to do. Is it possible to get back into a sorority through appeal (or other options) after being suspended for alcoholic reasons?
I had a good reputation in the sorority and have never gotten into trouble for anything. My record was clean.
One of my 'sisters' emailed her and she said that my actions were inexcusable.

Questions:
Was it only campus police who were aware of the situation? Or were local authorities involved, as well?
Was there a meeting between the advisor and any of the chapter members before you received the phone call? I would think that at the very least, there should have been a discussion amongst the advisor and chapter president, if for no other reason than to inform at least one chapter member of the disciplinary action taking place (assuming that the advisor has the authority to suspend a sister without chapter approval).
You say you were "suspended"... Indefinitely? Or were you given a specfic length of time for your punishment?
And as already mentioned, I would assume there is a procedure/paperwork to go along with the suspension of a member. Do you know if anything has been carried out as of yet?
