Patrick Sands (circa 1567-1635 [http://www.dwalker.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Fasti%20Web%20pages/p.%2044%20Old%20Greyfriars.htm] )was the third Principal of Edinburgh University, serving from 1620 until demitting office in 1622. He was a "layman who had been unsuccessful at the bar", and was appointed as Principal by the town council in 1620, in an act seen by some as "scandalous nepotism" [http://216.239.59.104/search?q=cache:mSuQIGVJdRoJ:www.scotchat.org/education/edu11.htm+%22patrick+sands%22+edinburgh&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=24]
