[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does it matter if the person's PhD is in humanities (deemed worthless here apparently) or neuroscience? You are not saying "Dr. Smith" because that person is superior to you (i.e. studied something that YOU thinks sounds hard). It is all about context, and who has authority in a given circumstance (the one who knows more is the teacher, the one who gets to give grades has more authority). [/quote] Because someone who just did some PhD in Kenyan Transgender Ethnic Studies from U-Hahaha is kinda not comparable to someone with an MD and a PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience from Hopkins?[/quote]
