Nice catch!

Attaching a scan of that entry from Black's Law, 2nd edition.

Any idea what "masters" or "doctor" might translate to? (i.e., as you work your way up the Masonically-graded and -degreed indoctrination system that we call "education"?)

Also, did you ever notice that the word "school" is mentioned only once in Scripture (Acts 19:9), and there in the context of a man named "Tyrannus" (not the friendlist-sounding guy)..

VERY interesting questions, psholtz. I am almost serious about feverishly tracking down historical (and legal) information concerning colleges, the various degrees, etc.

I found the information on our educational system having heavy indoctrination from wikipedia through the article on the word 'elite'.

The word 'master' may come from the word 'magister'. Just off the cuff, master and magister sound similar to the word 'magi' which may all have the same roots (consider this entire paragraph a hypothesis pending future validation).

I had been thinking about that for some time. The more yarn you pull, the more yarn you get with many interesting segements of the pulled yarn.

Perhaps an etymological search of the words would be a fantastic start?

Will be back later with whatever rough digging I turn up...
