At least I guess she thought there was 18 because you say the most there has been was 17 so well, she got close I guess...

It was after her first semester at The University of Kentucky (UK) that she "transferred to another college." The 18 chapters referred to in her article were "...when I followed three girls through the University of Georgia's fall sorority rush..."
In any case, her credibility is in question since there is a flat out inaccuracy right at the start.
According to the article, her experience started at UK where she claims there were 21 NPC organizations. There has never been more than 19 NPC chapters (17 current NPC sororities plus two defunct NPC sororities - Alpha Delta Theta & Beta Sigma Omicron) ever at UK. With the maximum number of NPC chapters on campus at any time being 14. In 1993 - when the article was written - there would have been 13 NPC chapters on UK's campus. And even if you added UK's NPHC chapters - which do not participate in formal NPC rush at UK - it would maybe total 16 or 17 sororities at the time. Still under the 21 number she claims.
Frankly, you would think she would know the difference between visiting 13 and 21 houses.
