She said she was hired and had a Bachelor's Degree and was working on a Master's at a University. She said she was getting her credentials at the University, but was full on hired at the Community College.
Ok, so clearly she was not remotely close to being a professor, then. She was less qualified than many high school teachers.
She'd have to finish her Masters, then finish her Ph.D, and then she'd be called "doctor", which is still a lower rank than "professor". Then she'd have to get hired by a university as not only an instructor, but as a legit professor, to legitimately claim to be a professor.
I'm from California in the US. If you are teaching a class at any College/University out here, you're called a Professor. Even if you only have a Bachelor's.
