Did the punishment fit the wine?

Students in any EC in our HS sign a contract they agree that they won’t drink at all and won’t be present where alcohol is consumed. (I assume they permit a student to remain in his own home while his dad drinks a beer.) The penalty for violation is being kicked out of the activity, plus whatever other penalties the school imposes.

This year some rival girls in the same EC posted Facebook or My Space pictures of each other drinking. Administration went on a witch hunt of any pictures they could find online of the girls in the EC. One girl had posted family vacation pictures where they all had fruity drinks with umbrellas in front of them on the table. The girl was called into the office and explained that no, hers was not alcoholic.
