Additional question. I am teaching a college political science class this fall. How douchey, on a scale of one to ten, would it be to ask them to call me Doctor?
In MPRE prep the Prof talks about how ethics boards use the "what would fool an idiot" standard. As such saying your firm only hires "Jurious Doctors" (even with the Juris in front of it) would be an ethics violation in most states,
Chiropractors ARE doctors

That would mean, of course, that your receptionist was a JD. So would the guy who cleans the offices after hours.
someone with j.d. but without ph.d, for chrissakes. no one dispute whether someone with ph.d properly called doctor.in land of blind, one-eyed person do all work.
