Tiger Inn

Insufficiently notable student eating club. Delete. (Do not merge, as there's no notable merge information.) --Nlu (talk) 18:25, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Club notable for its motivation for Sally Frank, who would be notable if anyone took the time to create a page regarding her feminist legal crusade. The case redlinked in this article is actually a very important one in Princeton and Ivy League history.  In short, Princeton has eating clubs (cross between frats and dining halls).  Some of them are selective in membership.  Sally Frank brought suit against selective all male clubs.  Eventually they became co-ed. This club was a rowdy bastion of testosterone during my days at Princeton.  This club, Sally Frank and the case referenced in this article are all notable.TonyTheTiger (talk/cont/bio) 19:00, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment: Concur with TonyTheTiger that there should be an entry on the matters he mentions. Separate articles on all 11 (originally 19) eating clubs might be a bit much, though. Newyorkbrad 19:06, 23 March 2007 (UTC) P.S. to Tony: Great username!
 * Merge into Frank v. Ivy Club assuming the latter gets written. The club is just a footnote to the court case. Mangoe 20:39, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep; notability is established. dcandeto 20:45, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. This club is notable and the article should be kept.  If someone creates "Frank v. Ivy Club" someday, then we can think about merging it in.  Until then, this should stay. Crypticfirefly 03:02, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Article could use improvement but I agree with dcandeto. Sirmob 03:59, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Despite the poor article, this club is more notable than many of the other 10 eating clubs which have (nicer) WP articles. --Seattle Skier (talk) 06:57, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep' there is probably a good case that these and similar sorts of organizations at colleges of major social significance like Yale and Harvard are worth keeping, because they are institutions affecting  the careers of people who play a major role in some areas of american economic life --possibly to an even greater extent in some instances than the universities they are associated with. The relative notability of the various clubs varies with time. DGG 08:47, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
