Evangelical Assault on the Ivy League

The New York Times had a fascinating frontpage article on Sunday about the Christian Union's attempt to create bastions of evangelical Christianity within the secular world that is the Ivy League. You will find very interesting their analysis of the rise of evangelical strength within upper classes of wealth, where once evangelical was code for lower to lower middle class and Episcopalian was code for upper class. All of those strictures have been turned upside down.

UPDATE
Fixed the link. Sorry.

Your connection doesn't work. I'd like to see this NYT take.
