Dig to Princeton in Yale's viewbook

<p>"In assigning students to residential colleges, Yale seeks to create a microcosm of the larger community within each college and to reflect the diversity of the larger student population. Unlike a system where students choose a "jock," [Cottage?] "artsy" [Terrace?], or "intellectual" [Quadrangle, Terrace?] residential unit, which can divide students, Yale's system promotes integration and inclusiveness."</p>

<p>Haha cool but ... stop talkin about eating clubs FOR CHRISSAKE! :D you wont have nothin to do with em until TWO THOUSAND AND SEVEN! :p</p>

<p>Several of the sign in clubs have quite a mixed crowd.</p>

<p>Actually, I really don't think that was a dig to Princeton. I think it was more of a reference to colleges (such as Stanford, Penn, Cornell, Northwestern, and many others) where students often choose theme housings versus random assignment. Eating clubs aren't a residential option.</p>

<p>I think underclassmen do feel the presence of eating clubs though...and they may go to parties there and such...so it's not completely separate from their lives until suddenly they're part of one.</p>

<p>I agree with phil on this one. I don't think it was a direct reference to Pton, per se, but a reference to other college systems where residential halls are 'themed'.</p>
