I'm just a pensioner these days. So, under the UK tradition you do not retain the title after your term in office? US tradition is slightly more familiar to me. Certain titles, President, Congressman, Judge, remain with the holder after his term It seems to happen in the ex-military, but not the sort of roles you mention. I don't think people can even keep a title like "Professor" unless elected to one of the few Emeritus Professorships. Not sure about that, or else emeritus status is universal. I've never met and ex-professor. My brother is retiring as "Associate" Professor from a Canadian University. I do not know how that relates to UK or US positions, or what he will retain. I doubt he cares either way. UK, I would imagine. |

Associate Professor translates to BritEng as "Reader". There are emeritus readers these days though not in 1978 when my father retired. Whether the Canadians will grant "Associate Professorship Emeritus" remains to be seen. I doubt he is bothered. |
