Cutie,
What you are experiencing is pretty normal, especially in a large chapter. Cliques form within a large group, whether it is a sorority, a high school or an office.
My advice? Be the best sister you can be and set the example for everyone else. Associate with those sisters that you respect and respect you in return. If one of your sisters tries to involve you in a conversation you feel is 'catty' or unsisterly, politely tell the girl that you don't feel it's your place to talk about "Suzie", "Janet's boyfriend" or whatever and that it does not reflect well on the sisterhood you know to be found in the chapter.
If people talk about you behind your back, there is nothing you can do about it. Ignore it and associate with people that make you feel good. Those sisters that really know and respect you won't believe the rumors, anyhow.
Remember..people will only value you as much as you value yourself.
