How many kids remain on these rosters more than first and second year? Sports at Ivies always seemed like a way to backdoor in rich kids and diversity admits -- who are nudged to quit after a season or two, so they can give their roster spots to the next wave of rich kids and diversity admits.

Not many diversity kids on the sports teams at Ivies.

My Brown DS student-athlete read this thread and laughed at the “adults” who trash a school they never attended. We figure those posts are from people who never got over the fact they didn’t get in themselves, or are bitter that their child didn’t. Either way, it’s just ridiculous and reflects so poorly on them (even in an anonymous forum).

agreed.

No one cares that much about Brown. It does seem like a school that can no longer afford to field a track team ought to let another school take its place in the Ivy League.
