I wonder, however, whether this is _still_ true for the elite colleges. The
increased competition now to get into such schools and increased attention
to "doing the right things" during high school to get into an elite college
might have changed the nature of the student body.

Back in the "good old days" the less competitive nature of elite school
admissions might lad led to a somewhat different student body.
