I would peg it closer to 1 out of 10 being able to name all eight Ivies (and only those “Ivies”). Too many people believe that local LAC, State U or big name non-Ivies (Stanford, Duke) are Ivies because of over inflated reputations in the area and because they think of Ivy League as an adjective not an actual entity (As in “Oh man you’ll never get into Geneseo- its an Ivy is so tough to get into!”)
