I read it and I'm not even Greek (yet!). I think, like many girls, robbins is a bit insane and goes through crazy and non-crazy phases. This comes out in the book where she'll tell the stories fairly unbiased and then write about both the good and bad things...and then suddenly she'll go off on a tangent about the whole university-supported cliques and the like. She does bring up good points though--when she talks about the old Little Sisters groups--we actually quoted a bit of that and inserted it into our bylaws regarding what not to do with the sweethearts. And yes--more community service and less competition would probably be good.
I have seen more drinking and drug use in residence halls than in anything mentioned in this book. She doesn't even really bring up cocaine use and I know of a few houses at other universities known as the "coke sorority." She also doesn't seem to like Chi Omega much--but a lot does seem to be taken from the now-defunct Chi Omega Secrets website (which still has a few pages and it's original directory up--maybe someone hacked it?). Most girls laugh at the 'secrets' she wrote about.
