I'm pretty sure you cannot "end up being a professor" in the traditional
sense of that word without a Ph.D. A Master's degree, while a
significant achievement, is not the academic qualifier required for
being a professor.
I bet that is true.
They buy what they sell.
Just love the disdain shown here so often for academic achievement.
Sometimes it is justified.
The local college was looking for someone to manage the dorm expansion
project. They rejected my wife and another experienced construction
manager in favor of a guy with a masters degree in construction
management (and zero experience). Now the project is running almost a
year behind schedule and the cost overruns are piling up.
They hired what they sold, not what they needed.
That could have happened for reasons that have nothing to do with the
construction manager.
