Professor,

Yes when the Head of Department introduces me he always uses Dr to indicate that I am intelligent. (I think -)

My old Dean used to say you could get a chimp through a PhD if you were prepared to be a helpful Supervisor.

I have heard of one Prestigious School in the USA - shall remain nameless, but they refused entry to a person who wanted into the Masters Program, so they reapplied to the PhD program and got in.

The joke at the time was "the person qualified - they were breathing."

That is not funny but sadly it is true.

John Nichols
