What’s wrong with football?

Over the past five years Princeton football has a record of 1–19 against Harvard, Yale, Penn, and Brown. The 200 alumni who signed the letter to President Tilghman suggest that the football policies of Princeton follow those of Harvard and Yale — to level the playing field. Princeton has a proud tradition of excellence in football that is followed by the distinguished achievements later in life by those who played at Princeton. Let’s restore those proud traditions.
