<p>i don’t disagree with a word of that, bulldog: yale’s college system is several decades older and a bit more fully “developed” (by involving a greater fraction of all undergrads) than princeton’s. i never denied this or attempted to argue that princeton’s, despite these “deficiencies,” is just as “good.” i simply objected to your buddy X’s characterization of their histories and their differences (“the only system of such scope and importance” vs. a mere “marketing ploy”).</p>
