Colin...this sums up Princeton.
I was, unfortunately, at a football game between Penn and Princeton. The ref's most exciting remark was:
Ooh. Fumble.
It's oh so Ivy League. Oh so Ivory Tower. University City was much more fun.

Princeton is too pretentious.
At the Yale/Harvard game there is a tradition that during the third quarter the band turns toward the crowd and plays a striptease song. The students of Saybrook, a Yale residential college, then proceed to strip naked.
There is also "the streak". On the day when the parents of incoming freshmen come to visit the Yale campus, hundreds of upperclassmen run naked across the quad.
Back in 1995, when I was a senior, some Yalies protested Playboy's recruiting of Yale women by - get this - streaking. They ended up nude in the next "Women of the Ivy League" issue.
Now about those Princeton students. Nice sweaters.
