Wilson Lodge, which has not accepted a sharp dichotomy between academic and social pursuits, has provided a haven for those who subscribe to Smith's indictment of the clubs. It encourages faculty members to dine there as often as possible, and has invited eight "faculty fellows" to become a kind of honorary member. By contrast, only two or three of the seventeen clubs have any "intellectual activities;" one of these, Cloister Inn, has invited Professor Stephen Bailey of the Politics Department to a discussion next week, but cases like this are sparse, and Princeton's clubs are a long...

At the end of a gruelingly elegant day, Cygnets must dress ("looking as if they have washed too") to dine by candlelight at small tables rich with silver. Examinations test the sheen of the polish; this week the girls will be grilled on "table manners" or "arrangements and care of flowers as an indoor decoration," and "Why is it important for a magazine story to have...
