- How about "Faculty Indoctrinees? Just kidding, trying to fit in in Arizona.
- Why not call them "Learners" or "Learner-Practitioners"? Back to Arizona: how
- about "Fellows and Gals"? Actually, we would probably do better to establish
- the gender neutrality of "fellows" by consistently applying it to both
- genders. Who will turn down a McArthur Fellowship?
