Talk:Howard Wolowitz/@comment-251103-20120518180758

My mom asked me the other day why Howard doesn't have a doctorate, and I realized it's never been explained. Is is a fiancial concern, or are there not that many doctoral degrees offered in engineering, or what? The only hint to why he never got his doctoral degree is that he can't stand the sight of blood, which is why he never went into medicine--though Sheldon is equally squeamish about blood (at least his own), so that couldn't be it.
