….it’s Wellesley.

School spirit is just a crude way of saying pride. And the most tangible way to measure pride is what is the chance a randomly selected alum would Go out of their way to help the school or another randomly selected alum for a random task/ask.

It’s Wellesley.

Spirit isn’t throwing a hoodie on and cheering for 4 hrs on a Saturday

Spirit is how far you would go for your “gang” só to speak.

Wellesley alums back each other and their school like none other.

I agree that Wellesley would probably be one.  The top schools in my view would probably be the ones where the graduates feel they have shared, transformative experiences - experiences above and beyond rooting for the football team.  This probably is more likely in schools like the military academies and military schools (Army, Navy, but also schools like VMI), single sex schools (Wellesley), challenging schools (MIT, Caltech), smaller schools with a unique character (Williams, W&L).
