[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]That description of eating clubs wasn’t accurate even decades ago. Only a few of them are selective.[/quote]

Selective “bicker clubs”:Tiger Inn, Ivy, Cap, Tower, Cannon, Cottage. That’s six.

There are eleven eating clubs total. The majority are selective.

f you have an issue with the eating clubs at Princeton, I assume you also have an issue with the secret societies, final clubs, and fraternities and sororities at other Ivies and universities.

Absolutely do. But the difference is these other schools don’t have a 70% participation rate in their flavor of frat/sorority. Princeton is dominated by it. [/quote]

So, does that mean if 100% of Princeton wanted to join an Eating Club, then they could at least be part of the other five that are not selective?

I am not aware of another school that even has remotely the capacity for 70% of the school to join a Sorority/Fraternity.  I am also not aware of any school that has open fraternity/sororities with their own house that throw parties, offer meals, etc.

At most schools...maybe 30-40% has any opportunity to join a fraternity / sorority.  The fact that Princeton has capacity for 70% is actually fairly astounding.[/quote]
