Quote From pjlu:
Just an idea- On one of our (Australia's) university's postgraduate forums, I noticed that when people passed either their Masters or their PHd, they got a little thing below their avatar which said (in the case of a Master's) Master or Mistress of the Forum and I assume in the case of a Doctorate (Dr of the forum). I'm not sure though whether this was an automatic process or you clicked something on the avatar page to put it on, once you had graduated.
I thought it was really nice-one of the forum regulars had just passed her MA and the thesis was successful and the appellation just appeared-so the forum regulars could all congratulate her. The forum was for students of that Uni only though-I came across it by chance and was able to use it as a guest only.
Might be another thing that could be added as well, on top of the hall of fame which is a really nice idea as well.
But how will it be testified?
