Ben Stein = Ivy?

Recently have seen Ben Stein on TV as an Economist. Here, I thought he was just an actor from 80's comedies. He always wears an oxford cloth buttondown and club tie, even on national television. Anyone know more about his background? Maybe he is an iGent?

Oops. Try Google...

Columbia and Yale during 60's and 70's. Yep, that explains alot....

Ben Stein's an interesting one. A perennial Nixon apologist, he is perhaps the most prominent right wing supporter of decidedly left wing Simple shoes.
