Maybe Joy did not speak up because she didn't not look fondly at her time as a collegian. However, she also knows that Robbins book is not an accurate portrayal of the greek systems and she felt that it would best for her to stay silent.

On the other hand, she might have been silent because she had to hold her tongue
Co-sign. I think that some GC folks take it personally when a celebrity isn't as gung-ho about their affiliation as we might be. For some people, it really is just a college thing. Others had experiences as an alumna (as I have) that would make one want to separate from the organization. People change and grow, and some decide that Greek Life isn't for them as adults.

When NPC groups have so much graduation attrition, why are some so hurt when we see someone who does the same thing as half our chapter did--who just happens to be famous?

I don't know--I felt like it was a pretty good representation of Greek life. It made me laugh, and there were definitely girls in the book that reminded me of my sisters. But what do I know?
