As a grad student, I can report I occasionally sport a beard that would win fans among the rural hermits in Montana, with a clothing style channeling the spirit of David Bowie after a bad bender in the Soho district, circa 1974. Deodorant and I are still tight though.
Grad students occasionally become professors. Which is why someone at the University of Toronto created a quiz called Prof or Hobo?
The easiest way to tell the difference in person? Do they mumble nearly indecipherable gibberish about the good ol' days with a tear in their eye? They're probably a professor then.
