Forum:Category: Professors - and non-professor scholars...

So, as we've been adding characters, i'm thinking about the Category:Professors - it was originally designed for those with actual professor positions at universities and colleges, but what about other characters whose jobs are similarly scholarly (research, preservation) but are not actually Professors. should we include them (and thus perhaps rename the Category to Professors and Scholars), or should we make a separate category for Academics (this would mostly include Museum-connected academics, like Marcus and Eduardo, as well as scholars not associated with a school, like Matthius. The key difference i suppose is that Professors are generally considered to have teaching duties, while other academics may be only interested in research (and publication).

What do you think? Jawajames 18:06, 11 March 2009 (UTC)
 * One category for all eggheads,
 * Two categories: Professors, Scholars...
 * or should Academics be broken out into their fields: Antiquarians (Museum staff, typically), Historians, etc., and Professor is an overlay profession (if they are known to have that title at a college or university) that is also used. thus Henry Jones would be both a Historian and Professor.
