University lecturers are to hold a debate about the "meaning" of David Beckham. Academics will analyse the England soccer captain during a three-day conference about celebrities. One has written a paper saying Becks, 30, is a modern Christ, while another claims he's a 21st-century King Arthur. The conference is at Paisley University , Scotland, where sociologist Dr. Carlton Brick will be presenting a paper titled A case study of David Beckham's meaning.

OMG... How are these people gonna justify their actions to the people whose funding was cut because of idiotic events like this in the first place! Discussing the cultural relevance/influence of Beckham is fine, but three whole days devoted to him??? The world's turned upside down...
