The Ivys, until very recently, were a white, male Protestant club. The WASP is still held up to be the elite ideal and it is why others aspire to join their club. They might be welcome at Harvard or Yale, but let's see them gain admittance to the Country Club. Good luck with that!
And let's not forget the Irish.

I'm sorry, I must have forgotten. When were the Irish and Jews enslaved in this country? Other minority groups? French? Italian?
