Professional students.  Fear of the working world.

There was one pro-student when I was doing my undergrad - he was like 32, working on his 3rd or 4th undergrad, being an RA in the dorm, working in the cafeteria - don't know if it was a huge fear of the real world or just smarter than the rest of us.

If he hadn't figured out to go to graduate school where you do research and get it paid for, I vote he wasn't that bright.

One of my favorite profs has 2 doctorates and his M.Div. 

His name is Dr.Denis Lamoureux and he is one of the most influential evolution supporters with an evangelical background.  He goes around bashing anti-evolutionists for a living...it is actually one hell of a cool job.

Doctorate in bio, dentistry U of A.
M.Div Regent College.

He is really brilliant.
