Walk down Prospect Avenue in Princeton, New Jersey on the first Sunday in February, and you'll find a horde of shivering college sophomores huddled together on a front lawn, smeared in ketchup, maple syrup, and egg yolk. They're organized into stations: one group choking down live goldfish, the other pounding out push-ups as senior members shovel dog food into their mouths. These are the students trying to win membership at Tiger Inn (or TI), widely known as the frattiest and hardest-drinking of Princeton University's 11 eating clubs -- exclusi ...

Tina deVaron remembers one rainy spring night of her freshman year in 1975. She had just finished an exam that day, and her residential advisor—"kind of a nerdy guy"—took her out for a beer with some of his friends on the rugby team. After she had returned to her dorm room at the end of the night, she heard a knock on her door. It was one of the rugby guys. He asked deVaron if he could sleep on the extra bed in her room so he wouldn’t have to walk up campus in the rain. She let him in. ...
