It sounds to me like your house is going through a kind of "rebuilding" where your house's image on campus needs improvement. Maybe your exec and your advisor are only trying to enforce the existing rules and make your chapter into the kind of chapter it needs to be. Sometimes when an exec comes into office and they start making changes, it can be hard for the other members to see what they're doing is for the betterment of the chapter. One of the advisor's jobs is to help exec decide what is best for the entire house. Advisors and execs have to back each other up... their battles are being fought behind the scenes. Unless you are on exec yourself, you don't know what is going on in their meetings. I'm on the advisory council for my house and we have also been accused of being friends with exec and always "taking exec's side." We don't take sides, but we do meet with exec and try to figure out what's best for the house.
I echo what the others have said--if you want true sisterhood, exhibit it yourself. Be an example and others will follow. Also, if you only have one year left as a collegiate, stick it out. There is a good chance that things will improve soon. In college, things often seem heightened...the drama, the excitement, the disappointment. When you look back on those four short years, you won't believe the things that upset you! You'll feel so silly. And you'll regret dropping out and missing out on a fulfilling life as an alumna. Take the first step, set an example. And if you have a real problem with exec or with the advisor, talk to them personally! You might be surprised at their reactions. Sitting around complaining doesn't benefit anyone.
