> That's interesting. I often wonder if there's a male/female difference at work sometimes. I'm female and still fairly young (compared with my colleagues) and I wonder if that makes me more of a first-name kind of person. Did you mention once that you teach physics? I'd guess you don't have lots of female colleagues, so you might get 'doctored' more often.
Yes, I'm in physics, but in this case I think it's more the institutional culture than the field. Students refer to the female faculty as "Dr. X" as well (and I did have a female colleague this past year and will again at my next school).

Looks like July 26 will be the day. I'll be glad to have this thing out of the way!
