Robbins definitely wrote about IU. She was at the Journalism School several different times a year or so before the book was published sitting in on classes, talking to students. She used the guise of her being a journalist, she wanted to see what the school had to offer and wanted to "mentor" female journalists. At least one of the women "featured" in the book was a journalism major she "interviewed" for an "internship". This information was relayed to me by a person who was teaching there in the j-school at the time Robbins was finishing up the book and the person put two and two together after the book was published.
