Dear ariesrising's roommate, Just a point of information. Many collegiate sororities don't allow deactivitation in this way. If you are going to remain a member, you need to retain your affiliation to your collegiate chapter, pay dues and attend mandatory obligations. The only way to disaffiliate would be to leave the university (or with some sororities per local chapter bylaws: get pregnant or get married.) But those are drastic measures just so you can join an AA later on or wear letter shirts around campus. And besides, if she hates it so much now, why would she want to retain membership status on any level?
