[quote=Anonymous]As someone with both a technical and non-technical advanced degree, both of these issues are ridiculous. The person who wants to be called Dr. is ridiculous and so are the colleagues who are worried about ranking the relative prestige of the degree programs. At my company, on the work day closest to when a PHD is conferred we call you Dr. and then it is back to first names. I know people do obsess over the programs, I was once presented with an excel spreadsheet from an engineering hiring manager with his rating of all of the degree granting programs in the US. It was an impressive waste of time. And it reminds me of the college forum. There is so much variance among graduates of any program you have to evaluate each person on their individual capabilities.
