Well, our friends in the Ivies certainly seem to believe in the mens-corpore connection (and do play in D1, just not FBS football). In general, the Ivies and Stanford offer the most NCAA sports programs, and since most of the privates are relatively small they by far have the highest percentage of the student body personally participating in intercollegiate sports.
For example, from their web site Harvard appears to offer 20 sports for men and another 20 for women. Stanford lists 16 for men, 20 for women.
Meanwhile, nominal sports power fifth largest university in America (52K+ students) University of Florida lists 8 sports for men and 11 for women.
