Assuming that I love the women in both chapters and feel that the sisterhood is equally tight...
AAA all the way. I don't give a $#*& about what people think after I graduate. I can't imagine anyone in the adult world whose opinion I care saying "Well, she was an AAA, and you know they only have 5 good chapters." From Greekchat, it sounds like maybe that happens in small towns in the South; in the professional world in NY, DC, Boston, either people don't care about Greek affiliation at all, or they have mild contempt for Greeks in general.
Now, similarly, if some asshat wanted to laugh at me on campus for wearing a BBB shirt, f#&$ him. But let's be honest...on-campus prestige is not really what's at stake. If you have to spend the whole year recruiting 24-7, if you have to struggle to get other groups to hold events with you, if no one shows up at your philanthropy events because they don't know who you are...that affects your actual college experience. Being an AAA is not just about having people seeing your letters in class and saying, "Wow!" It's about being able to focus on other issues besides chapter survival.
