Why is Harvard called an Ivy League school?

Harvard College is one of the 8 Ivy League universities. The Ivy League was original a football league (NCAA Division 1), so it really had nothing to do with academics. The universities in this league would play football against each other.

If you notice, all the Ivy League universities are on the Northeast and 7 of the 8 were founded early on in the Colonial Era. The Ivy League is known for academic excellence, and its name was first used by sportswriter Stanley Woodward in the New York Tribune. "A proportion of our eastern ivy colleges are meeting little fellows another Saturday before plunging into the strife and the turmoil." -Stanley Woodward, New York Tribune, October 14, 1933, describing the football season The other Ivy League universities include: Yale Princeton Cornell Dartmouth U Penn Columbia Brown.
