She went to Yale, where she says she had little if any first-hand experience with sororities. A plausible claim.

Seriously, from what I have seen of it, her book isn't worth much. But completely uninformed statements like "she probably got rejected by sororities herself and wanted to get back at them" aren't worth much either -- all such statements do is perpetuate the stereotype that she's capitalizing on.
