[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My argument isn't absurd at all. It's both common sense and consistent with the clear preference that dual admits have for Harvard and Yale over Princeton as well as the greater number of applications that Columbia and several other Ivies also receive.  The selective eating clubs are a scourge that reinforce the school's country-club reputation.  They'd be long gone but for the older alumni who'd cease to donate if the administration did away with Bicker.[/quote]

"scourge"???  You must really be bitter about getting hosed back in the day.  Given how much fun you seem, you probably would have gotten rejected from whatever selective organization -- finals club, fraternity/sorority, etc -- you would have tried to join if you happened to attend somewhere else.  If you had simply signed into Charter, everything could have worked out fine.

Plus, even if you were right that Princeton is somehow falling behind its peers, it is quite a stretch to say that Princeton's demise is the result of selective eating clubs.[/quote]
