School Spirit? Sports?

<p>^great link, thanks for that.</p>

<p>“Some of our other non-glamour-sport teams also are very good. Fencing is fantastic, our sailing team wins a bunch of stuff; I was on our ultimate frisbee team and we were pretty good too (not as good as Brown or Harvard but we kicked Princeton’s buttocks soundly a few times).”</p>

<p>ultimate might have gotten even better after you’ve left, we do well at golf, we have some great squash players because of the new york squash league, a varsity team should be starting this year. Our basketball is not below average for the ivy league we’ve come 3rd - 4th 2 years in a row. we also won baseball last year, and women’s field hockey, women’s soccer. Track and field also has stars every year. So there are several decent teams by ivy standards, fencing is obviously our best.</p>

<p>“Here is a place where non-athletes are not second-class citizens, as I know to be true at places like BC or, god forbid, Ohio State. I know tuition dollars and administrators’ attention are going to us first”</p>

<p>this captures the essence, i wouldn’t want to be at a place where non-athletes are second class. we have really strong extra curricular programs. we have one of the best bhangra dance teams around, music and acapella, needless to say, are fantastic. Our mock trial team was among the best a couple of years back. Our model united nations competitive team is internationally ranked and easily a top 5 team in the country. Debate reached the quarter finals of the national tournament last year. Our clubs also consistently get hot shot speakers in politics and international affairs to show up. There’s school spirit abound, just look in non-traditional places.</p>
