poets at war!!! shenanigans over Oxford Chair of poetry

How on earth did this make it to World Politics levels of importance?!?!

Like it or not, grads from the Ivy League schools (and their British equivalents) step directly into positions of power when they graduate. The Harvards, Yales, and Oxfords are the places where the theories about how and when to use power are developed in the next generation. Its almost all Harvard and Yale grads who designed our economic and political system. (Doing a great job, eh? ;))

While the poetry chair isn't an earth shattering post, it does show the Social Darwinian/compete at all costs mindset at work.
