When, in your job were you ever required to define OOP? What makes you think you're a better examiner than the school the people you're interviewing graduated from?

Zinhle is right. I wrote something similar last year. I had interviewed +-10 IT/Com Sci Graduates that week. 80% of them couldn't tell me something as basic as "what port http uses". Maybe 1 of the 10 could provide a simple definition of OOP. We see things out there
