You've gotta be kidding.... you have a naturopath andchiropractor
teaching science???? What next? An astrologer to teach astronomy?in
This whole discussion of titles and degrees is ridiculous. There
are plenty of Ph.D.'s who couldn't find their way out of telephone booth
Fresno with a roadmap.while

I teach at a high school with one other teacher who also has an Ed.D. We
both find some of our students like to refer to us as Dr. ___________,
others use Mr. or Mrs. Neither of us makes an issue of it.Interestingly,
within the last year we have hired two science teachers, one a recentsets
graduate of a naturopathic college who is teaching part-time until she
up her practice and the other a retired chiropractor. Both of these
teachers always identify themselves as Dr._______.

It's a high school & I'm the only "Doc" there, but my friend tells me
she has just been hired. If that's so, we will have 2 & we can find out.
I'd guess the answer will be no. Besides, most of my students do not
call me Doc & I feel uncomfortable telling them to do so.

My preferred appellation is "Doc", which seems to finesse the "too
distant" question.
Do they call _all_ of their professors "Doc"?
