Hi Alan – Dean just meant that a piece of paper doesn’t automatically make you a good scientist. Yes, you need the degree, but you also need to put in the time and effort to learn your field. There’s a lot of work that goes into a science career after earning your degree. Thanks for your comment – Sandie
