U. getting 'pinned'--I was always under the impression that doing that was out of style, especially since lavaliers are pretty cheap to buy and don't necessarily have as much sentimental value if the relationship were to break up and the guy doesn't get it back.
As for DGs wearing lavaliers--again, I haven't been an undergrad for a couple of years...but I know a bunch of girls had lavaliers. I got one from a senior when I was a freshman and wore it constantly when I was in school (never at a bar though  ). It was a more modern looking lavalier, however, and had the letters going horizontal instead of vertical, like the Kappas and Pi Phis tended to have. A lot of my sisters had the same ones--they were labeled 'lavaliers' in the Anchor Trader (fraternity-run store) but weren't traditional, as I said. It may just be that you're not thinking of their necklaces as lavaliers--but again, it may be that not many girls are wearing them anymore. Completely possible.

a few of my DG friends wear necklaces with an anchor charm, sometimes with their other necklaces. I think they are so beautiful
