[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Dr" Yeah, right ;) [/quote] Come on. In your own professional setting, it's fine to use Dr. as a title when you've earned a doctorate in that field. [/quote] [b]It's technically accurate but widely mocked among PHD holders. [/b] The title is widely understood to be used primarily by medical doctors.[/quote] I have a Ph.D. and don't know any of my colleagues who would mock an Ed.D. or similar. I would refer to an education professional as "Dr." if they've indeed earned a doctoral degree. I don't try to split hairs or pull rank about what kind of doctoral degree.[/quote] What about those with JDs?[/quote] I didn't say mock to their face. Probably more like an eye roll or a snide remark to a colleague. Anyone using the title that way is going to inevitably sound full of themselves and a little clueless.[/quote]
