[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wealthier than athletes from non Ivy schools, I am sure, but not likely more wealthy than the student body as a whole, which I believe is the reference in the PP.[/quote] No, athletes overall. I went back and checked The Price of Admission: "...contrary to the stereotype, varsity athletes at elite colleges are more homogeneous, both racially and socioeconomically, than the student bodies as a whole." Good data and studies are cited to back the statement up. This is because colleges recruit from elite sports, like skiing, polo, crew, fencing, golf, etc. [/quote]
