Both of the math faculty members at my school are PhD-less, though at least one is admittedly a special case (completed all the requirements, then found out that his thesis had already been done, or so I've heard). Take a look at some school's undergraduate prospectus, and find the place where it tells you "Percentage of faculty with terminal degree in their field." I don't recall a single school I looked at having that at 100%, which implies people without doctorates (or the equivalent in the case of fine arts, create writing, etc.). -Jason -- Jason Wojciechowski==jwojciechowski@hampshire.edu http://wonka.hampshire.edu/~jason GPG key - 0EFB1DFE During the voyage of life, remember to keep an eye out for a fair wind; batten down during a storm; hail all passing ships; and fly your colors proudly.
