My dad went through a similar humiliation. He held a PhD from Johns Hopkins in English. After retiring as a Prof. of English, he became bored, and decided to teach
creative writing at a junior college.He was told he lacked
certain "education" requirements. By the way, my dad later told me the woman who turned him down was illiterate:)

Yep! Been there, saw that.

I have absolutely no doubt your father's story is 1000% correct.
