This opinion piece is just as full of toxic masculinity as the WSJ opinion article. She doesn't insist on being called "Dr." I haven't seen anything where she insists on it. She has a doctorate - she can be called Doctor. I have a few friends who have a doctorate - they get referred to as Dr and aren't medical professionals.
Why is it SUCH a big f* deal that she goes by "Dr" when she has a doctorate? Notice how it's these males who have an issue with it.
This is why you don't have a lot of females in certain fields - we constantly get torn down. Our entire lives whether some of you want to admit it or not society tears women down from all sides. From men, from other women. It's damn ridiculous.
If someone has a doctorate, they can be called "Dr" just deal with it. Move along - there are much bigger issues in this country than her having a "Dr" title.

LTC Kevin B. It's not what I was told by many RP members who asked me to go to bat for him.

MAJ Dale E. Wilson, Ph.D. - What makes you think you deserve a special explanation, especially given that you're out here openly perpetuating a completely false accusation?

Would we trust someone's opinion of SF operations if they never even went to SF school?
Would we trust someone's opinion of Ranger operations if they never even went to Ranger school?
Would we trust someone's opinion of Airborne operations if they never even went to Airborne school?
That's what we have here. The film critic without any graduate degree or any expertise in the field of education has zero standing to make those assertions about her work. Nothing to see here but someone struggling to generate hate.

LTC Kevin B. - The statement about experience versus degree remark has to be explained to you? You're really asking that question? Do you even understand one of the prime functions of the original intent of RP? Why don't you ask one of the civilian HR personnel on this board what I mean, if you can not figure it out on your own. SMH.
As far as Finance and Accounting being two different fields, in certain respects true, but the underlying factors are exactly the same. And as a Finance SME you should acknowledge that because the basics for both are the same. And whether you want to acknowledge it or not, you can not have one without the other.

SSG Robert Webster - I understand the difference between experience versus education. What I didn't understand was where you were trying to go with your vague and disconnected remark. Besides, that tradeoff is not even relevant to my mentioning of the debating fallacy. Plus, it's a false dilemma because most times it's not an either/or proposition. So, that rabbit hole is a diversion from the topic of this thread. Lastly, some parts of the field of finance use accounting information, but some don't. Likewise, some fields of accounting do not use financial decision-making. The simple commonality is that both fields involve dollar signs, but that commonality is superficial. So, they are two completely distinct areas of expertise. That's why they are broken apart into separate departments in many larger and more developed business schools. In some cases, they even exist in separate schools. They are not the same field.

SFC Bernard Walko - I'd be willing to bet that I could review every post you've ever made on RP and not be able to find any posts where you have critiqued the dissertation of any other doctoral-degree holding person. So, this really isn't about her and her dissertation. This appears to really be about one of two things. First, it could simply be that she is a soft target and you are going after her, when your real angst is against Joe Biden and his policies. In that case, it would be rather cowardly. You should just own that, or go directly against Joe Biden. Second, you are against women pursuing advanced degrees and having standing within their chosen profession. That is misogynistic. Otherwise, I can't see any real reason that you, and some of the others on here who are attacking her, would really give a crap about a dissertation from over a decade ago, at a university you probably didn't attend, within a discipline that you don't have expertise. So, with all of that being said, what is your real motivation for attacking her? Just be candid, and stop hiding behind some pursuit of high-quality scholarly works within the field of Education.

SFC Bernard Walko - I didn't call you a coward. I proposed a potential explanation, which could be viewed as cowardly (and is, in my opinion). I also proposed another explanation. I also asked you for your explanation. Don't be so quickly and easily offended.
First, she doesn't have a PhD. She has an Ed.D. Those are two different degrees that happen to be at the same doctoral level. Second, she is not a political person; she is married to a political person. She is no more of a political person than Melania Trump, or Ann Romney, or Cindy McCain, or Laura Bush. Proximity to a politician doesn't make her a politician.
Also, don't be so quick to throw out the liberal card. You don't know my stances on many issues. You only know that I'm not receptive to political attacks on a woman who isn't a politician, by people who are attacking her scholarly work when they have no/little experience or expertise in her academic discipline.

WSJ stands by op-ed saying Jill Biden should drop 'doctor' title
Wall Street Journal opinion editor Paul Gigot defended an op-ed published over the weekend that drew criticism by calling for the incoming first lady to drop...
Thank you my friend MAJ Dale E. Wilson, Ph.D. for posting for posting the perspective from yahoo by Kyle Smith - this seems to be tongue-in-cheek
Yes Jill Biden as an educational doctorate Ed.D. whish is a legitimate doctorate. The implications of where she was awarded the degree is another matter.
To be honest, people who are awarded a PHD, Ed.D are actually authorized to be to be called Doctor.
I concur that people high in the government should be wary about playing the honorific title stridently :-)

"Mrs. Biden wanted the credential for its own sake. As for its quality, well. She got it from the University of Delaware, whose ties to her husband, its most illustrious alumnus if you don’t count Joe Flacco, run so deep that it has a school of public policy named after him. That the University of Delaware would have rejected her 2006 dissertation as sloppy, poorly written, non-academic, and barely fit for a middle-school Social Studies classroom (all of which it is) when her husband had been representing its state in the U.S. Senate for more than three decades was about as likely as Tom Hagen telling Vito Corleone that his wife is a fat sow on payday. The only risk to the University of Delaware was that it might strain its collective wrist in its rush to rubber-stamp her doctoral paper. Mrs. Biden could have turned in a quarter-a**ed excuse for a magazine article written at the level of Simple English Wikipedia and been heartily congratulated by the university for her towering mastery. Which is exactly what happened."
