Ivy League
The Ivy League is an American collegiate athletic conference comprising eight private research universities in the Northeastern United States.

Its members are Brown University, Columbia University, Cornell University, Dartmouth College, Harvard University, Princeton University, University of Pennsylvania, and Yale University.
