Check the 175 amp mega fuse on the front of the engine compartment fuse panel. Replace this if it is blown. Check for shorts to determine why the fuse is bad to begin with.

Can a faulty alternator drain a new battery?

It can, though it is unlikely -- the alternator and the voltage regulator would both have to be faulty. A faulty alternator will not charge a battery, though, so it may seem normal until the charge put into the battery at the store runs out.

What would cause no output from an alternator on an 88 monty Carlo besides the alternator itself?

The positive cable between the alternator and the battery has an open circuit or break. There also is a set of wires that plug into the alternator that turns it on when the car is running. Wiring problems here can cause a alternator not to charge on the vehicle but works fine on a test stand. Some cars the alternator light in the dash causes the alternator to kick in when the engine is started. A burned out light in the dash causes the alternator not to charge.
