I haven't seen the book, but I know I've seen similar errors (not the omega for omicron, though) in colleges' official recruitment materials, so it doesn't really seem that bad.

I'm pretty sure the UGA Pointer listed Carly Simon as a famous AGD back in the day.

You know that thread we have about famous Greeks that never were? It lists lots of mistakes made online and in recruitment guides. Anyway, I've seen sooo many of these made on Panhellenic and individual sorority websites. The most common one on Pi Phi websites is that Sally Field and Susan Lucci are Pi Phis.

For years, the rumors about the Wrigley arrow and Parker Pen arrows being due to Pi Phi wives of company founders were accepted as true by members. I don't even remember anyone trying to debunk them. Anyway, our national magazine debunked those and many other Pi Phi rumors a couple of years ago.

After reading this guide, I'm guessing that one author is an ADPi and the other a Kappa.
