Cambridge is Hiring a First-Ever Professor of Lego

It is never too late to go back to college. Cambridge University—the prestigious British institute of higher education—was recently endowed more than $6 million from The Lego Foundation to foster study in the field of playing. The Foundation, which owns a quarter of the Lego toy company, wants the school to create a professor position and a research center dedicated to examining the role that play (we’re assuming with Legos) has in development and learning. The right candidate will be smart, innovative and will obviously never go barefoot in the classroom.
