So? Only the original campus is Ivy League. Not the entire college system, some of which has only recently been added. If Harvard bought our the University of Tennesse and called It South Harvard then by your definition that great school in Knoxville Tennessee would be Ivy League.

Yeah, I think this is a sensible analysis of the situation. Perhaps it isn't fair to say, "Olbermann didn't attend Cornell" -- obviously he did, but it wasn't THE Cornell everyone thinks of when you say "Cornell".

He didn't attend the "Ivy-league" school he claims to have attended. But he did attend a "Cornell".

Hugh, > Not the entire college system, some of which has only recently been added.

A university is a system of colleges. UC Berkeley, for instance, has 14 colleges and schools:

I don't know where you get the notion that there is an "original Ivy League campus" at Cornell. The Ag school is on the same campus as the Engineering school, and the Architecture school, and Hotel Administration, and Human Ecology, and ILR, and Arts and Sciences, etc.
