I've been lurking on this one, but I'll venture a comment:
When I was an undergrad (at a small, prestigious US college) there
was a cultural expectation that all teachers would be called Mr/Mrs/Ms,
for the expressed reason that this would prevent "degreeism" . Good
idea. In my present faculty position, we have some faculty titled "Dr."
and others titled "Prof" (i.e. no Ph.D.) , in office plaques, the
college calendar, the phone directory, etc. This practice creates a
status structure which is, IMHO, poisonous. I'd go back to the other
system.
