#AshleyAdrika was Accepted to ALL EIGHT #ivyLeague Universities! (I didn't even know there WERE '8'; I thought 3, maybe 5 ...) | @MSNnews @NYdailyNews
New York Daily News reports Ashley's preliminary success (and a big decision to make) in an MSNN-shared report you can access through 'the emboldened link(s)' below; but first I want to teach you about those words. And I find you understand words better if you see 'the words at their base' (then going on to look at the words at those words' bases, then the words at those words' bases, etc.-etc. ad infinitum into their Foundation)
The Ivy League was coined as a name for the universities (now 8 in total) by Stanley Woodward, who described the schools as "... #Ivy Colleges" (probably referring to the tradition of #PlantingTheIvy where students would plant Ivy at every building on what became known as #IvyDay.
that's UPenn, Columbia, Harvard, Dartmouth, Yale, Cornell, Brown & Princeton
(Although--since many schools which are not Ivy League schools follow that tradition--the league-name might come from the fact that there were originally only 'Four' (Roman IV) schools in the league before they officially registered all eight under the #IvyGroupAgreement.)
The word “Ivy” (sacred to Bacchus) is built on ancient words that mean "|Hay."
