I had never heard the University of Malta was a beacon of academia attracting Harvard professors and USSC justices.
Here is a piece on the lack of academic rigor at the University of Malta:
"The QS World University Rankings is a ranking of the worlds top 500 universities by Quacquarelli Symonds using a methodology that has been published annually since 2004. According to the last research (2010-2011), our University does not feature in a list of 600+ universities."

I would think that Malta is a pretty obscure place to go if you are a “closeted” gay man. And given that Malta’s university isn’t exactly Harvard or Cambridge, the clues get more interesting.
Thanks for posting!
