"The ______ Ivy"?

<p>Cornell is not the "Easy Ivy" if anything it's the hardest of all!</p>

<p>It's the easy-to-get-into Ivy, though. My school has like 30 kids there from the past three years.</p>

<p>it doesn't matter what I think- this is a pretty prominent stereotype at my school.</p>

<p>Yup... for all it's worth, Cornell does have the highest acceptance rate of the Ivies! It's in the mid 20s while Yale had a rate of 8.6% admits this year!!</p>

<p>Cornell's should be amended to the easiest-to-get-into-but-hardest-to-graduate-from Ivy. Whew, quite a mouthful. :p</p>

<p>Ha! That's indeed a mouthful :D but it's very true from what I've heard and read.</p>

<p>A common chant against them at football & hockey games: "One in four, maybe more."</p>

<p>How old is that traditional chant anyway?</p>

<p>"One in four, maybe more."</p>

<p>what does that mean?</p>

<p>^I was wondering the exact same thing</p>

<p>It's a reference to how Yale is the "gay" Ivy. Supposedly, there is a chant that is applied to Yale that goes:</p>

<p>"One in four, maybe more;
One in three, maybe me;
One in two, maybe you."</p>

<p>I guess Yale has had a lot of gay undergraduates!</p>

<p>But what I want to know is HOW old this tradition is, and under WHAT CIRCUMSTANCES it came about. Does anyone care to explain? Thanks.....</p>

<p>I'm not entirely sure, but I get the sense it's had that reputation for the last 20-30 years.</p>

<p>Meanwhile... in another chat room:</p>
