I also don't like them b/c I found out that we are supposed to vote on them and they didn't have that happen and I know a lot of alumnae that would have done a better job as advisors but didn't get it b/c of the way things were handled.

Katey, do you have a regional or area advisor that you could go to about the situation? Not to stir up trouble for anyone, but it's very important that the chapter feel comfortable with their chapter advisors. If you feel like they are playing favorites - how can you trust them? If your national policy says that Chapter Advisors are voted on by the chapter, and yours weren't, maybe an area advisor would call for a vote to help resolve the issue.
How long do your chapter advisors serve in their positions? Our policy is for advisors to serve a two year term. They can be reappointed for many terms in a row but at least there is an "OUT" for a CA that isn't doing a good job or for a CA that wants to resign but doesn't want to "quit".
I'd find out more about the national policy regarding CA's and then make sure that policy is being followed. You may find a "legal" solution to your problem.
Good Luck!
