What’s in a name? If person says they are a “doctor” does that mean they actually have a medical degree or a just a PhD? Context can’t always argue the right decision, and sometimes you have to actually ask, “Are you a ‘doctor’ doctor or just a ‘doctor of philosophy?'”
You may remember the strange case of a student teacher that posted an image on her MySpace page as a drunken pirate. She lost her teaching internship and a chance to finish her undergraduate degree.
Is grade inflation really a problem at the PhD level? Isn’t the assumption at the graduate level that each student should be expected to do “A” grade work?
