One of my old girlfriends was a Ph.D in education. The protocol is for people at the school to call you "Dr." because, of course, that's their bread and butter.
To ask/demand that somebody not in your university to do that? Sad.
ETA: Also, it's a bit fraudulent. General usage is that we call MDs, DOs, etc...doctor. Whoopi Goldberg even said (of course, without knowing that she wasn't a real doctor) said, "She's a helluva doctor!" Hmm...We can bet that Whoopi didn't mean "She's a helluva a doctor of Educaton! You should see her lecture!"
Lol. Yeah. I have a master's in statistics. I've joked about people needing to call me master. But if I had a PhD I'd expect people to call me Dr in official circumstances but not much else. Mainly in educational settings.

That makes more sense. Thanks.
I have a Masters in Ed. I don't expect my friends or coworkers or people I deal with to call me "Master peltast".
