Interesting.

First, in the last chapter, Albburg sounded completely atypical from any German public uni I ever heard about (and I don't think we have enough snobby nobility left to fill even a small uni, let alone the very idea of a public uni that sounds like an US religious college), and now the concept of a jock-free US uni ... some tough suspension-of-disbelief stuff there!

There are actually a few jock free colleges although their number is dwindling. I went to one myself, but they've since sold themselves down the river.

But come on, this is fiction, after all -- and in this area, maybe even fantasy . . .
