What the h*ll were those "Rhodes Scholars" really doing while they were in England?

Well, one thing about the Rhodes Scholarship, it pretty much afford the recipient to study anything they want for two years at Oxford. The Rhodes Trust pays for tuition and fees, also provide a spending stipend to the scholars. They can study for a degree, but it's not really required.

The idea is to let the chosen scholars two years of intellectual freedom to pursue whatever study area they find interesting, without strings attached.

FWIW, the three U.S. Services Academies have produced around 160 Rhodes Scholars.
