OH GOD. 
ETA: I noticed this in the comment section: "There would be no one in Greek life if everyone got suspended after getting in trouble with mason "police"."
Wow. What a smart thing to say...

Seriously? You made a mistake. Be a grown up about it and deal with the consequences.

Based on this passage (taken from the Alpha Xi Delta webpage specifically addressing its alcohol policy): "Failure to abide by law, regulation, policy, or Fraternity standards may be cause for membership release, suspension of membership, or discipline of the chapter in accordance with such Alpha Xi Delta policies." It sounds like suspension is not the same thing as termination. Regardless of whether the disciplinary action is permanent, however, it seems AXiD is pretty clear in its expectations. I can't believe the OP (or the sisters who made the petition for her, if that's what happened) thinks this petition will actually help her cause.
I wonder if we'll ever hear any updates from the OP.

I'm pretty sure at Sam's you can buy decency wholesale. You have to be a member, though.

I just looked at the chapter's website and she isn't listed as a member.

Depending on the sorority, Chapter Advisors can suspend a membership if it is in the best interest of the sorority. Usually, though there is an investigation and they have passed it up the food chain to get it approved. Check your national Constitution and Bylaws for the specific guidelines that apply to your group.
As far as over the phone, as a CA, I NEVER want to communicate important information, such as disciplinary issues over the phone. It can open you up to misinterpretation, you don't know who else is listening on the other side, etc. I've actually sent a certified letter (paid out of my own pocket) to a member to who refused to meet with me or even have a phone call to set up time to meet (it was a disciplinary issue obviously). The certified letter was to cover all based and I was instructed to do so by the women I report to.
My advice is to meet with your Chapter Advisor and find out the results of
her investigation. Maybe she has missing information, you never know.

No, I wasn't wearing any letters and it was not a chapter related event. It was the end of the semester and I wanted to unwind. I came from a party and was heading back to my dorm.
Is it a bad idea if I disclose the name of my sorority??
I can appeal, but I have my doubts. Recently, my chapter got in trouble for alcohol at an event (I didn't get in trouble). The area facilitator had to come in and give us a talk.
Yes, I definitely learned my lesson, but I know of other sisters who got got called in for the same thing yet none of them were suspended.
The lady who suspended me just became our new chapter adviser and she told me that our sorority has a zero tolerance on alcohol.
Ugh, I wanna fight it, but I doubt my National Council will reverse the suspension.

Um is it a suspension or disaffiliation? You make it sound like it's permanent, which isn't what a suspension usually means.
