<p>I would expect the Academies to produce Rhodes Scholars - here’s a quote from the Rhodes webpage :
“Intellectual distinction is a necessary but not a sufficient condition for election to a Rhodes Scholarship. Selection committees are charged to seek excellence in qualities of mind and in qualities of person which, in combination, offer the promise of effective service to the world in the decades ahead.”</p>
<p>What better places to find “qualities of person” than the academies.</p>
