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

All of the "Ivies" except Cornell were founded during the colonial period; they thus account for seven of the nine colonial colleges chartered before the American Revolution. The other two colonial colleges, Rutgers University and the College of William & Mary, became public institutions. Ivy League schools are v ...
