Greek Stigma

Has anyone ever been treated badly in other organizations because they are greek? I have been part of an organization on campus since the beginning of my freshman year, and since I joined a sorority, respect for me has gone down the toilet. I have to miss part of one of our weekly meetings because of a class, and while I've told them repeatedly its for a class, I get harassed, and someone usually makes a crack about sororities almost every time I leave to go to class.
I can;t wear letters to meetings because my coach specifically asked me not to, and I'm not allowed to wear letters when we travel either, because they say that they don't want us "badly represented". Recently, I received a diminished role in the group, and when I asked why, they told me it was because they think I take my house more seriously than I do them. I miss meetings because I'm in an academic class, and I have worked my way up from the bottom of this group since freshmen year. I love my house, but I keep it separate from this group and I've worked too hard for this team to just leave.

Has anyone here experienced similar problems? And what did you do about them?
