The "only MDs go by 'doctor'" rule was also in place at my undergrad institution --- ostensibly for a historical reason having to do with one of the founders being a little sensitive about never having finished school despite notable achievements, academic and otherwise. Like all other college lore, this was likely a crock of shit.
Now, where can I get one of those posture pictures?

I believe "Dr. Laura" took a similar hit from actual psychiatrists for having a non-medical doctorate yet happily implying she had one.
That, and Dr. Morality's nude photos. But I can't imagine you'd want to get one of those.
