gray crowd

If MFA programs are attracting so many eager young poets, why is it that the audience at so many poetry readings is filled with graying elders?

    Simple: Because today's young students are impervious to the enticement of extra credit.

    I would suspect that has a lot to do with which poets you go listen to at readings.
