[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The phrase “big three” originated in the 1880s not as a recognition of a particular academic program, but rather when these three colleges reflected the cream of the crop in [b]US football[/b] at the time. That’s all. [url]https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Three_(colleges)[/url] “The phrase Big Three originated in the 1880s, when these three colleges dominated college football.[1] In 1906, these schools formed a sports compact that formalized a three-way football competition which began in 1878.” [/quote] Football was a proxy for WASP men. So, schools that didn’t practice discrimination are not eligible to join. Schools that didn’t discriminate against Jews, for example, will be forever excluded as a disgraceful liberal institution.
