Same principle here, unless someone literally tied her down and poured alcohol down her throat.

As the current risk management chair for my chapter, I can verify that there are
no national policies that state that upperclassman are responsible for making sure that underage members do not drink outside of official functions. When it comes to official functions, we have a sober sister program that is implemented to prevent such things, although I do not know if this chapter does have a similar program. I would imagine they might, but this doesn't sound as if it was an official function. I interpreted this to read as if she had been at a fraternity party.
However, this is just my interpretation, and I could be totally wrong because I'm not close with the situation. Hopefully this helps a bit.
