I don't wish to know who shared this email, but I do hope that they really think about how they've affected their chapter both nationally and locally.
I think it will blow over. Everyone knows that girl is no longer a member and the sorority doesn't tolerate this type of behavior. It may even paint them as "famous" and make girls want to join because of all of the attention. I also don't blame the whistle blower. I get what you're saying about keeping matters internal-- but this has started an important conversation about how to lead and motivate. I'm sure the sororities will be re-educating their members on not sharing private emails, but if someone was hazing, you'd expect them to report it and for it to be in the news. I think screaming abuse at someone garners the same type of attention. I'm sure the email was forwarded not to get "help," but to call out the psycho who sent it.

(I can see mothers advising their daughters to not pref that c*nt punt chapter...lol) I can't remember any story in recent times that has caught fire like this. Even the Homeless mixer and Mexican mixers didn't seem to be as viral as this. How exactly do you field those questions from PNMs if you are an active DG and it comes up in recruitment conversation
I really think this will blow over quickly and be a distant memory by the time recruitment rolls around. I posted a link to the infamous blood drive email from a few years back, and I'd be willing to bet no one remembered that or blinked an eyelash the following recruitment.
