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