Consternation within the student union at the LSE, where bright sparks raise cash and prompt a lively discussion on academic elitism. All via a carrier bag bearing the logo "More intelligent than you since 1895!". Complaints aplenty. "This is, in some ways, worse than awarding Saif Gaddafi a PhD," says one web protester. "Maybe Cambridge should have one saying 'More intelligent than you since 1284'," suggests another. "Then Oxford could come out with one saying 'More intelligent than you between 1100 and 1283'."
