[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't get a job in Germany or you’ll really be in for it. The Germans, especially the professional ones, are extremely anal when it comes to professionals titles.[/quote] That is a fact. Academics are very proud of their titles in Germany and they use them. I had a professor there who used two doctorates in her title. So she was addressed as Professor Dr. Dr. X. I found it a little odd at first, but that was her choice. Why are OP and others so incensed over persons simply choosing to use a legitimately earned academic title? To the pp who is proud of her mom for her accomplishment of earning an Ed.D, good for her. She has every right to be proud. If a person with an Ed.D chooses to be addressed as doctor, that should be up to them and it is not for OP or anyone else to denigrate that person’s accomplishments.[/quote]
