[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Different fields have different norms. [b]One that I find particularly jarring is education — where let’s be honest the level of research quality is appalling low. Ed doctorates love to be called Dr.[/b] It’s particularly weird when they’re in a room full of parents who actually have PhDs in fields where you can’t sneeze on a tissue and submit it to a journal.
