Yes M, indeed I do think it's a double meaning and I thought it quite clever too. But since the "character" refers to the individual and not to the paper, I thought the way I put it was best:-)
Bubo Coroman (X) Oct 15, 2007:
yes, it's a play on words between "degree" meaning "grado" and also "licencia"
Margaret Schroeder Oct 15, 2007:
Terry, don't you think they mean "degree" as in "título"? Or maybe it's intended to reference a double meaning. In any case, I would venture that "título" is either the intended meaning or an essential part of it.
