It seems some people do, like writing the author no matter if it will change things or not.

Honestly, I feel the time is spent well because people like Robbins allow the stereotypes of Greek Life to continue to live on. And she didn't help any by publishing a book full of "facts" and "true stories."

Like it was previously stated, she decided to publish a book and that book is open to criticism.

People that aren't part of the "greek world" have a hard time understand how hard it is for people to battle the stereotypes...and trust me, there are many efforts to clean up chapter images and "bad chapters," these things aren't simply ignored.
