Inside Higher Ed: Battle of the Ivy League gossip blogs
Two new blogs have been competing against one another in Ivy League gossip. IvyGate is currently featuring a contest of “Faculty Studs and Tenured Temptresses,” in which six male and six female professors are vying (almost certainly against their will) for those titles. Two of the male contestants have been teaching at their institutions since the 1960s. IvyLeak meanwhile is featuring analysis of why the Yale-Cornell football game has fallen on either Rosh Hashana or Yom Kippur in three of the last four years, and has suggested that the match be renamed the “High Holiday Bowl.”
