Ok, I feel odd because I know I'm one of the more conservative people here, and I don't see anything terribly out of the norm for a college kid in the OP's laundry list of transgressions. Perhaps some extra discretion in how these indiscretions are handled (shack up at the fraternity house, but keep the walk of shame witnesses to a minimum).

I wouldn't say they are out of the ordinary. Discretion is what is missing. If the risk management chair is getting blackout drunk at functions/mixers etc that is a problem. If it is at a random party, it's just not healthy. If the sister wants to sleep around and let everyone know she does so, so be it. However, she shouldn't be wearing letters etc. What would actually worry me is the sister airing dirty laundry on Facebook. Everyone has a moment (or a hundred) where they hate what they are doing. That doesn't mean you should blast it to your 600+ friends who are part of Greek life/PNMs. Complain to your mom/a friend/a sister. Vent and be done but do so discretely.

Discretion does seem to be a problem with this generation as we have seen on GC with usernames and such.

You could be right, but it appears as if OP isn't utilizing all of the channels she needs to use to really diagnose the issue. While she may be overreacting to a non-existent problem, it doesn't appear she's really run all the traps which need to be run in this sort of situation.

As a CA, even if a younger initiate is overreacting, I can't look into a problem if no one tells me about it. Better safe than sorry.

Sounds like every chapter member needs to hear this video.

Just to remind you that you are always wearing your letters and representing your organization!
