1 : a member of an institution of learning

...Dr Odishoo doesn't fit this definition either...he may be a member of a medical "institution of learning"...but he is not and never has been a member of a Hmanities "institution of learning.

..his "background"..."oulook" and "methods" were not determined by any institution of the Humanities...certainly not as a "scholar"...but as a self-taught amateur.
