AOII_Luv,
The story you described about your friend is very similar to something that happened when I was in school. One of our members deactivated (because her boyfriend wanted her to) but continued to wear her letters everywhere. I remember, even years later, how horrified I was to learn this.
Now that I am (much) older, I have realized that the people who will do something like that do not stand on the same principles that we do. You will never make your friend understand this because she just does not see it as a problem. In addition, since she has no loyalty to AOII to begin with she will have no problem using the letters when it is convenient.
I have no advice to offer you that will fix the problem as you see it. I can only tell you that if it causes problems later, they will be your friend's problems. Perhaps one day she will regret what she cast aside, perhaps she does already.
Enjoy the end of your college days and try not to let it bother you. I can't say it won't affect your relationship with your friend, because it probably will. I have to wonder, though, how good a friend she is if she will bad mouth something in your presence that is obviously important to you.
Regards,
Anna
