Isn't that ironic
My girlfriend just called to let me know that Paramount Pictures is apparently on-campus in Philadelphia, filming scenes for the Transformers sequel. The funnier part is that Penn's (oh no, now you know where I went to school! However, based on my previous writings, it should have been easy to deduce - there's only one Ivy in Philadelphia) Upper Quadrangle is apparently a stand-in for Princeton University. That will only add to what I observed to be a weird inferiority complex that we had for our New Jersey Ivy League colleagues. We call Princeton our main rivals, but Princeton considers Harvard to be their nemesis.

There's certainly no transitivity to Ivy League rivalries -- Cornell considers Harvard our primary rivals without real reciprocation. The most notable rivalry is probably between Harvard and Yale, where the history of competitiveness was founded in the "my Puritanism is holier than thou" baloney.
