I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic or not. But in all seriousness, the richness that has been added to my life by walking around with a Library of Alexandria in my pocket is immeasurable. People may jokes about the value of having 24/7 access to cat videos or whatever, but the reality is that over 3/4 of Americans have access to knowledge that people in any other century would have sold their souls for.
An MD is a medical degree. It's possible to have an MD but not practice medicine professionally in the same way someone can earn a law degree (a JD) but choose to not be a practicing lawyer. "Professor" is a academic title for people at a university or advanced teaching institution. Most professors do have terminal degrees in their respective fields like PhDs, MDs, or JDs, so you could also call a Professor with a PhD "Dr. X" instead of "Prof. X". But, "Professor" is generally considered a more prestigious title since its much rarer and harder to get a professorship than get an advanced degree.
Am I the only person on the planet that likes the shallow keys? Although it took a little getting used to, I can definitely type faster on the newer keyboard compared to the older one.
The fact that you feel so comfortable saying something that sounds so vicious and dismissive of many many years of students' hard work and aspirations is pretty disconcerting. But even if what you say is true, isn't it a university's mission to expand horizons and channel the talents of hard-working people toward productive and fulfilling ends? Any university worth its salt should be able to mold and guide a proven high-performer quite easily. Finally, if you actually believe what you say, then just admit race-blind and name blind. I'd bet a lot of money that many of your "boring Asians" wouldn't seem quite so boring to you if you didn't know their ethnic makeup.
