Bill Clinton will not be the next president of Harvard

The Harvard Crimson fronts a curious story on Bill Clinton becoming the next president of Harvard University. Curious because, if you read the article, it becomes exceedingly obvious that there is no chance in hell that Clinton will be named president. Rather, it appears that the writer’s chief motive was to publicly memorialize the fact that he shook hands with Bill.

In other news, however, a little bird recently told the Llama that Dean Harold Koh of the Yale Law School, currently a member of Harvard's Board of Overseers, is in fact high in the running for the presidency of Harvard. Not going to substantiate that. Just going to throw that out there.

Update: A now-medium-sized bird claims that Koh is in fact one of a handful of top candidates; the short-list also reportedly includes Elena Kagan, Dean of Harvard Law School. Again, no substantiation here.

I am not a little bird. Medium sized at least.

Llama check your annotations! Harold ain't no Harvard overseer no more. http://www.haa.harvard.edu/alumni/html/all_overseers.html

wouldn't his name being on that list mean that he is an overseer?

Uhhh... yeah. Silly me for not noticing that. But Mark Foley is a Democrat and I don't work for Fox News.
