使用する際の注意点

When used as part of a title, this term is always given in all uppercase. When used generically to refer to one who holds this type of professorship, the term is most often given in lower case, but some authors use all uppercase in both situations. Note, for example, the 2002 quotation under the Proper noun definition, which uses the upper case form for the title and the lower case form to describe the holders of the title.
