    See any patterns?

    All the people mentioned are Asian. Does that mean that Asians have a higher attrition rate than do other races at eating clubs?

    Maybe Princeton needs even more diversity. How about active recruitment in Greenwich, Lake Forest, Palm Beach, Beverly Hills,etc. Would benefit the financial condition of the school, would strengthen the clubs because we would have students who understand the value of socializing and parties, and could possibly result in Rapelye's resignation. All pluses.
