> Princeton [..] bastions of WASP culture and tradition
I agree with the bulk of your comment, but it's scary how disconnected from reality stereotypes can get. The Ivy League is no WASP bastion (and Princeton is no exception) - per https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30338742 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30338742, their non-international students are:
Ivy League US Ratio
Jewish 17.2% 2.4% 7.16
Asian 19.6% 5.3% 3.71
White (incl. Jewish) 50.3% 61.5% 0.82
Hispanic 11.4% 17.6% 0.65
Black 7.8% 12.7% 0.61
White (non-Jewish) 33.1% 59.1% 0.56
