Let this be an example to the new hires--your groundschool and first year on the line is most definitely still part of the hiring process. This is true at every airline, whether it's a legacy or a regional.
My policy has always been that I don't want the chief pilot to know or hear my name--at all--in my first year at an airline (if not for the rest of my career). Show up to work, fly the plane, and get through your first year--leave your personality, issues, and emotions at home. And stay miles and miles away from flight attendants on overnights and ESPECIALLY in groundschool.

I can understand why Mesa might just be a little more concerned than some carriers about pilots sleeping on duty

The fact your classmates are coming forward and publicly stating you were doing much more kind of seals the deal.
Grow from this and become a better person, or don't. Stop trying to blame everyone but yourself though.
