A similar situation happened at my school.

This isn't only hurting your chapter, but it's tarnishing the image of your school's overall greek system. Greek Rank brings out the worst in sisters, and while your chapter is being beaten down, it's also making the other chapters look extremely petty.

So at my school, the result was our Panhellenic Council organized somewhat of a sisterhood event that was mandatory for every chapter to attend, and they presented a Panhellenic Resolution - an agreement where each chapter agreed to hold each other to a higher standard and support our Panhellenic sisters in all events and situations. There was a discussion about Greek Rank, and everyone from every chapter was encouraged to stay away from it all together. And you know what? It actually worked. We were relieved of a lot of toxic feelings and it helped to put everyone on an even playing field. It's turned into an annual event that Panhellenic puts on, but now only new members are required to attend.

I suggest that you or a chapter officer bring this problem up to your school's Panhellenic Council and see if they would be interested in coming up with a similar resolution. Feel free to message me if you want more details about our resolution.
