Definitely apologise, and by all means say that you got carried away and drank too much, and that you're resolved to not let it happen again. I'd wait til you're firmer in your sobriety and aren't feeling so emotional before making decisions about telling people about your alcoholism though. Feeling like gossip about that is going round the campus isn't going to help you.
Good luck making your apologies.
