<ol>
<li>Byerly didn't go there</li>
<li>Byerly didn't go there</li>
<li>Byerly didn't go there</li>

<p>byerly?... who's byerly?... :confused:</p>
<p>I think you just became my hero.</p>
<ol>
<li>The professors believe that your minds are beautiful. And they are happy to give you the benefit of all their years of study. They will point you to that obscure fragment of Ovid that just perfectly demonstrates your theory.</li>
<li>The campus is beautiful.</li>
<li>The alumni organization is the best in the world. After you graduate you will, mark my words, attend your 25th Reunion and tears will come to your eyes as you round the bend of the final curve of the P-Rade and you see all those enthusiastic kids waving banners and cheering for your class, even though by then you will be middle-aged and not generally prone to parading.</li>
</ol>
<p>"prone to parading?"</p>
<p>oh... this is byerly....</p>
<p>Princeton reunions are the biggest of the ivies</p>
<p>I doubt if they are any bigger than Cornell's, which fills the entire football field and all the surrounding stands to capacity at graduation, and has tents running for miles for the grads...., or Yale's, .... or Harvards.</p>
<p>Prone to parading. Prone to parading around. Prone to parading around displaying oneself as a peacock. For example.</p>
<p>I just looked at numbers. My god what has happened to me. The class of '95 at Harvard had ~32% attendance for their 2005 reunion. The class of '95 at Princeton had ~42% attendance for the same reunion. The approximately part is because I used last posted number of attendees from class websites and to get the number of the class I used total number for freshman class of 2004. I don't know how many people are actually still in the Harvard and Princeton classes of 1995.</p>
