I know that our liability insurance will not cover any alum present at a social function that is not specifically designated as an alum event. The only exceptions are advisors, Inat'l officers and approved/invited alums who are acting in a chaperone/advisor capacity.
This whole situation goes beyond the actives ability to deal with. To some extent even beyond your advisors since they have tried and failed to get through to her. It should now be dealt with on the Inat'l level. But the chapter needs to be told point blank that this woman is threatening their chapter's very existance.
This woman is guilty of breaking the law by giving alcohol to minors. She is jeopordizing the chapter's charter at the Univ as well as with your GLO. Being a founder doesn't mean squat in this situation nor does it matter what was considered acceptable 10+ years. (Though I sincerely doubt any of this was ok back then, merely that she & her active sisters didn't get busted for drinking in the house, etc. back then.) She is a lawsuit waiting to happen.
She can still have her pin pulled by Inat'ls despite her status as an alum or founder or her age. She can be charged legally with contributing to the delequency of minors. She can be banned from stepping foot inside the house and then charged with trespassing if she violates that. But at this point all this needs to be handled by your Inat'ls and more specifically their lawyers.
My 2 cents
