In response to mrjames
You are a great numbers guy, MRJames, but athletic scholarships IMHO violate the reason that the league was formed. Athletic achievement may indicate something exceptional about an applicant (e.g. self discipline or his/her ability to work toward a goal). But the Ivies are first educational institutions and athletics are extra curricular. Athletics are, therefore, subordinate to educational achievement. With athletic apscholarships we run the risk of creating a separate class of undergraduates.
