Hayek Society

''from VfD:''

Non-notable student society at the Download ringtones London School of Economics. '''Delete'''. Anna19 DMG413/DMG413 22:32, 3 Oct 2004

*'''Keep'''. That there's a society at the LSE devoted to the teaching of Hayek is something that is interesting to anyone who knows a bit about his history. As our article on him states, he was largely considered an "academic outcast" due to his opposition to Keynesianism, and he taught at the LSE. It's obscure but notable. - Cingular ringtones RedWordSmith/RedWordSmith 00:24, 4 Oct 2004
**That '''our''' is partly the problem. Fancruft, not notable. Sweet Paige Pgunn/Improv 21:48, 4 Oct 2004
***Oh, yes, and '''Delete'''. Verizon ringtones Pgunn/Improv 21:49, 4 Oct 2004
*'''Delete'''. As RedWordSmith admits, it's vanity. (Note: There's already an article on Dessi and Dee Hayek himself.) Nextel ringtones Jongarrettuk/Jongarrettuk 01:04, 4 Oct 2004
**Huh? How exactly did you get "vanity" out of my comments? The "our" in my comment refers to Wikipedians, and is referencing the same article you note paranthetically. - Perfect Paz RedWordSmith/RedWordSmith 01:38, 4 Oct 2004
*'''Delete'''. Non-notable; if anything was even salvageable about this society, it can go on the Hayek article. Polyphonic ringtones Lowellian/Lowellian 01:48, Oct 4, 2004
*Delete. I'm sympathetic, but a student group doesn't inherit notability from its namesake. Adorable Amber Wile E. Heresiarch/Wile E. Heresiarch 14:19, 4 Oct 2004
**If we were talking about a Hayek Society just about anywhere else, I would agree. A Hayak Society at WSU would not be notable. A Hayak Society at Dartmouth would not be notable. A Hayak Society at the University of Chicago would not be notable. The Hayak Society at the LSE is notable, specifically because it is unintentionally symbolic of how much economics has changed in the last several decades. - Cingular Ringtones RedWordSmith/RedWordSmith 17:06, 4 Oct 2004
