	John Hood: The outsider \| Higher \| EducationGuardian.co.uk
		Ask John Hood about his working life, and he'll tell you that he's just a fellow lucky enough to have been surrounded by many of his country's best and brightest minds.
		Hood's humility contrasts with the glamorous notices being showered on the 51-year-old businessman turned academic leader for his work over the past four years leading his country's major institution of higher learning - a blueprint he now will be taking with him to Britain's oldest university when he becomes its next vice-chancellor in October 2004.
		Hood, the first outsider ever chosen to lead the University of Oxford, may yet prove to be the most significant infusion of foreign blood for the venerable institution since Emo of Friesland became its first overseas student, in 1190.

	John Smith Hood and Mary Maria Smyth Hood
		John Smith Hood was born on May 31, 1821 in the village of Jefferson, Jefferson Township, Greene County, Pennsylvania.(1) He was the first child born to the union of John Hood (1799-1843) and Letitia (Smith) Hood (c.1803-1887).
		In John Smith Hood's semi-autobiographical write-up in the Biographical and Portrait Cyclopedia, only a little math is needed to see that he moved from Granville to Lowesville in 1843, the year that his father died, but makes no mention that it was connected to his father's demise.
		Smith Hood said, "The last forty years of the life of John Smith Hood [1861-1901] were almost wholly devoted to farming and stock raising." This supports the idea that the change from saddler to farmer was a gradual one.
