Tiger Inn
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Tiger Inn (or T.I. as it is colloquially known) was founded in 1890, and is one of the ten active eating clubs at Princeton University in Princeton, New Jersey, United States and one of the five selective clubs; membership is awarded after successful completion of a process called bicker. During bicker, prospective members interact with current members who then convene to vote on whether the prospective members should "receive a bid," or be invited to join, the club. At Tiger Inn, the decision to offer membership must be unanimous.
Debate over co-ed membership abounded until 1991, before which Tiger Inn had been all-male. The club moved strongly towards admitting women, however, after the New Jersey Supreme Court ruled in Frank v. Ivy Club that failure to do so violated the state's anti-discrimination statute.
