Ivy League: lolwut?

[IBclass06]

<p>

I can assure everybody that MIT wouldn’t want to be part of the Ivy League, even if such an affiliation were ever offered. One part of the MIT class ring each year has the beaver (MIT’s mascot) sitting on a pile of eight ivy leaves. The symbolism is left as an exercise to the reader.

Agreed. Stanford, MIT, Duke, Chicago, et al do perfectly well on their own and have a unique flavor. I think any of them would be insulted by such an invitation.</p>
