To Denis '89 July 27 2:01 p.m. from Ph.D Candidate July 25 10:52 p.m. I just want to let you know that I am also the Alum who wrote the very relevant posting on July 25 8:13 p.m. about missing the true point of this matter (the firing of Jonathan Waters). However, my posting about the use of "Dr." is relevant (but yes, less relevant) as well because if OSU is to be taken seriously as an academic university, especially a Research 1 University, then academic terms and titles should be used correctly. As it already stands, many of these uncalled-for scandals are already ruining the reputation of our fine academic institution! Furthermore, they are jeopardizing the hard work, funding, and future of OSU Ph.D. students and candidates.
