Well done Max

NBR reports:

If you were Chief Justice Dame Sian Elias, you would need and expect the smartest kid on the block for your research and she had that with Max Harris, a Wellingtonian Rhodes Scholar, graduate from Auckland University who has just won what has been called the ‘hardest exam in the world'.

The exam is the Prize Fellowship at All Souls College, , which is undoubtedly one of the world's most prestigious academic awards.  Auckland University Dean Andrew Stockley says it is an “incredible opportunity” and Max, who a correspondent says is not only super smart but a “really nice nerd,” is interested in indigenous issues, prison policy and sport badly, he says.  A young man to watch, without question. 

That's a very impressive achievement.

In terms of his future, I named him in 2012 as a future Attorney-General for Labour.
