Dr. Shaq

[truemamamia]

Congrats to Shaq, but a doctorate through online courses and video conferences? I take it Barry University is one of those for-profit schools like University of Phoenix etc.

The TNT crew of Shaq, Ernie, Kenny and Barkely are the absolute best!!!

I was wondering same thing as I cant see how somebody can get a PHD online. However the way the article is written...i presume that a doctorate in Education aint same thing as a PHD. I wonder if there is a difference?(am lazy to look it up)

PHD is PHD and it doesnt matter whether it's in the liberal arts, humanities, education... As long as the school that offers it is accredited, no questions should be asked.

A doctorate in Education isnt the same as PHD. Check KDA's explanation. And I found this link...go the section that has the title "Comparisons of the Ed.D to the Ph.D. in education"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_of_ ... _education

Either way congrats to Shaquille!!!!

You might be wondering b'cos of your "PhD" you earned in this forum.
Doctor of Philosophy in any field is completely different from other Doctorate degrees like MD (Doctor of Medicine), Pharm D (Doctor of Pharmacy), etc. I am a Pharm D but not a PhD. To get a PhD in Pharmacy, I would need to do more research to earn it.

The american terms are very weird. IMO the biggest bullsshit is the MD title. Outside the USA...to be called an MD...one needs to do a PHD in medicine. It is confusing sometimes...

I think this (just like wiki mentioned) only exists in the US. I have a friend who has completed his doctorate degree in psychology but his title says PsyD. It's kinda confusing... Regardless, they are all called DOCTORS.

Shaq is visible. He's a goof but broadcasting isn't his forte.

He's not articulate, he talks in monotone voice, very low and deep voice, hard to hear him at times nor understand him. He speaks slow and is generally difficult to watch because he appears to be struggling and doesn't feel confident in the new role. He can improve, Sir Charles was only a little better than Shaq when he started but he's a natural knucklehead.

A doctorate in education is actually referred to as an ed.D, not a PHD.
The requirements are indeed very different.

I'm glad you two actually understood what I meant. I actually meant to say he was terrible but this auto correct thing switched it.

To add to what you wrote, he doesn't bring anything sensible to the table. He's a poor man's Barkley but that role is already filled. They should have made Magic a permanent fixture instead of Shaq.
