i just find this so interesting and wonderful ...and like if a big hockey butt wants to come hit me up for improv classes i'm not complaining🫠 imma make a union actor (nate. realistic) two time emmy winner (sid. dream on u don't have that ass) outta u
full article under cut:
Early in his time in the NHL, Darnell Nurse says he did not notice a lot of players talking about what to do after hockey. Going into his ninth season, the chatter is now normal.
“People are curious as to what there is outside the game and what you can do to prepare yourself,” Nurse said.
Plenty of players have taken it upon themselves to prepare for the future, like Zdeno Chara getting his real estate license and others finishing college degrees or exploring business opportunities. The NHL Players’ Association on Thursday launched a program that gives its members the chance to do a personality analysis and delve into real estate, business or other avenues while still in the league.
The hope is to help them develop interests outside of hockey while playing and ease the transition to life afterward.
“It’s something that’s been missing a little bit,” veteran center Lars Eller told The Associated Press. “It’s kind of well known that one of the struggles for a professional athlete is the transition on to the next thing once he’s done with his professional career. And this platform helps you with that transition, and it’s something you can start even while you’re still playing so you can sort of hit the ground running once you’re done.”
New union boss Marty Walsh made helping former players one of his top priorities. His arrival in March coincided with a process two years in the making, after player feedback indicated the desire for more assistance outside of hockey.
The result is the NHLPA UNLMT program. Retired defenseman-turned-psychologist Jay Harrison is available to do an assessment, and players can get involved with companies ranging from Money Management International to The Second City comedy and improv theater and institutions like the University of Florida and Stanford’s graduate school of business.
Former goaltender Rob Zepp, who’s spearheading the program as the union’s director of strategic initiatives, said an extensive survey provided the building blocks for something that was designed to be 1-on-1 and customized for players to figure out what might interest them.
“What we’ve seen so far it really runs the gamut: anything from enhancing one’s personal brand to starting a podcast to taking these certificate-level courses in real estate, in entrepreneurship, in business, in leadership, communication skills, networking skills,” Zepp said. “We have players that are interested in or are currently pursuing commercial real estate avenues or farming ventures or construction.”
Eller, Nurse and Buffalo captain Kyle Okposo are among the players who have tried UNLMT so far. Okposo has already graduated from Stanford’s business leadership program, while Eller has spoken with Harrison and taken some of the courses offered.
“They’re not waiting until people’s careers are over,” said Nurse, who is still in his prime at 28. “It’s something that you can dip your feet into and grab a hold of while you’re still playing and giving you resources and opportunities to kind of figure out what you want to do.”
Zepp got a degree from the University of Waterloo and an MBA from the University of Liverpool the old-school way — tapes and textbooks sent by mail and tests taken in front of a proctor — while playing mostly in the minors and Europe before before 10 games with Philadelphia in 2014-15. He felt like having something to study made him a better goalie and understood there was plenty of idle time on the road.
Eller, who is a silent partner involved with helping start-up businesses, thinks the same way.
“We, as players, we have — not a lot of freedom once the season is starting — but we do have a lot of free time,” said Eller, who scored the Stanley Cup-winning goal for Washington in 2018 and is a pending free agent at 34. “It’s a huge positive if you have something else that you can take your mind off of hockey and do something productive with that time.”
Walsh got to know several Bruins alumni when he was mayor of Boston and has since talked to other former players and come away with a mandate to protect guys beyond their time on the ice.
“When they played, they gave it their all, and a lot of them didn’t really have anything after that,” Walsh said. “They didn’t make big contracts. They really didn’t have a strong pension system. A lot of them, even going back further than that, lost stuff. We can’t let that happen again.”

Does Ben Gates have Ph.D?
It depends who you ask.
The textual evidence in the first National Treasure movie suggests no. (Or at least doesn’t present direct evidence for yes.)
As we discussed in the Navy article, the first film lists Ben’s education as follows:
degree in American history from Georgetown
degree in mechanical engineering at MIT
Navy ROTC, Naval Diving and Salvage Training Center
Like I argue there, my instinctual reaction is that the degrees are read in order of acquisition. That’s just the most common way to read them, especially when you’re constructing the history of a person, be that on a resume or an FBI profile.
That would suggest that American history a bachelor’s degree and mechanical engineering is a masters.
But wait there's more! Text, drafts, titles, and headcanons below!
As I point out:
There’s also the difference between a bachelor’s and masters’ degree to consider. The higher you get in higher ed, the more specific you get. A bachelor’s in American history would give Ben the greatest breadth of study, and the freedom to explore any and all topics he was interested in. A masters’ degree in the same field would ask him to zero in on a topic, perhaps more than he’d want to. Likewise, I think that depth over breadth would benefit him in his engineering degree. That way he could focus in on the areas most relevant to him and treasure hunting.
It’s also plausible to read this list in reverse order. That would suggest Ben got a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering (perhaps in an attempt to get Patrick off his back by making it appear he was not directly pursuing treasure hunting?) and then master’s or doctorate in American history.
While this is completely possible, I don’t consider it as likely based on the way it’s presented in the movie. The inclusion of the Navy stuff last makes it sound like Ben is progressively narrowing his field of study as he hones in on his Charlotte-was-a-ship theory. He starts with a broad foundation in American history, then proceeds on to the more specialized technical skills once he realizes the ship is lost/sunk and he’ll need them.
I also think it squares with Ben’s personality and interests. I just
don’t see Ben putting off the history degree. It’s his real passion, and there’s always the risk that he wouldn’t get to go back for a second degree for any number of reasons.
That said, the 2003 script does make it clear that in that version Ben does have a Ph.D in history.
When the treasure hunt seems to be at a Declaration of Independence-induced halt early on, Ian says
IAN You have your PhD in History. Maybe you can teach high school history.
The National Treasure Wiki lists Ben’s education history as:
Ben went on to receive a Bachelors degree in archeology and cryptology at the University of Philadelphia, a Masters degree in mechanical engineering degree from MIT and a Doctorate in American History from Georgetown University. While in Georgetown, Ben also enlisted in the US Navy Reserve Officer Training Corps for the next four years and received official certification from their Naval Diving and Salvage Training Center before continuing the six generation family tradition of treasure hunting. 
But I don’t see a source for this, so take it as you will.
Ben having a degree in archeology and cryptology seems important for the FBI to mention in their profile of him. Also if he went to the University of Philadelphia that seems relevant to the Philadelphia foot chase? But it’s Ian and crew who seem to be familiar with the streets. Ben doesn’t try to lead them anywhere tricky or clever that would suggest he’s familiar with the area. Even Abigail and Riley go to the more Philadelphia-specific location of Reading Terminal Market than Ben, who seems to be running toward any random place he might be able to hide or escape.
Titles
There’s also the matter of how he’s addressed.
In the first film, the only time anyone calls Ben by a title is when he’s being arresting him in Philadelphia.
SADUSKY Hello, Mr Gates. AGENT JOHNSON Mr Gates, face your father's car and put your hands behind your back, please.
The rest of the time he’s simply “Ben” to his friends and “Gates” to his enemies.
Now, not everyone with a Ph.D uses the title “Dr.” Not using it would fit with Ben’s personality as both a pretty humble person (he doesn’t flaunt his other degrees either) and someone on the outs with the academic community. More on that later.
However, I don’t know that that’s the case based on how other people are titled in the film.
Abigail is always “Dr. Chase.”
Her assistant, Ben, Agent Johnson, and Ian all refer to her as “Dr. Chase” at various points throughout the movie.
Ben obviously starts calling her “Abigail” as they get to know each other better, but even when he’s listing his requests to Sadusky at the end, he refers to her by title. And damn right. Respect her.
Maybe Abigail simply uses the title—as a result of her job, personal preference, or both—and Ben doesn’t. It does seem like the kind of thing that would come up both to her and in general to establish Ben’s credibility though.
There’s also the potential to ready Sadusky’s line as knowing Ben has a Ph.D but choosing to be disrespectful. As in:
SADUSKY Hello. Mr. Gates (derogatory)
This, I think, is the least likely option, though, because Peter Sadusky is unfailingly polite, even regarding the people he’s pursuing.
For example, he also always calls Ian "Mr. Howe." In the surveillance van near the Intrepid he says
SADUSKY If that's not Mr Howe, I want to know who it is.
And when he’s arresting Ian in Boston he says
SADUSKY You're under arrest, Mr Howe.
So my reading is that Sadusky always uses someone appropriate title. If he knows Ben has a Ph.D, I think he’d refer to him as “Dr. Gates” because he has no reason to know if Ben prefers not to use the title.
Book of Secrets
There is one time where Ben is referred to as “Dr.” on screen, and that’s in Book of Secrets.
When Abigail meets Mitch at the restaurant, she receives a call from Ben, finishes decoding the “Laboulaye Lady” clue, and hangs up because she can tell Mitch is overhearing. Regarding the call, Mitch then asks
MITCH Dr. Gates?
There are four possible readings of this line that I can think of.
Ben does have a Ph.D, it just wasn’t mentioned in the first movie for whatever reason
Ben does not have a Ph.D, but Mitch incorrectly assumes he does
Ben does not have a Ph.D, but Mitch is attempting to flatter Abigail by flattering her (ex) boyfriend*
*Is this a good strategy? No. Do I find it a plausible character action? Sure.
And finally there’s my preferred reading
Ben did not have a Ph.D during the events of National Treasure, but was awarded an honorary doctorate after finding the Templar treasure.
Why does he need one?
Ben is clearly piecing together a custom-built treasure hunting resume. It’s logical to me why he would want to start out studying history then pivot to more specific technical and engineering disciplines once he realized he would need those skills. I’m not sold on why he would go back for his doctorate.
A Ph.D is an incredibly specialized degree. Ben would be spending years writing a thesis on a single topic.
If that topic is the Templar treasure, Ben would have a nearly impossible time defending his thesis. We know that his surname alone is well-known enough in the historical community that Abigail knows about his family’s reputation just from hearing his name. Ben would be subjecting himself to years of derision, skepticism, and humiliation on a thesis he is not able to defend because we know he has yet to convince anyone but Ian and Riley of the existence of the treasure.
Or the topic is not the Templar treasure, in which case, what is he doing there? He’s spending years of his life studying a thing that he does not want to be studying. Maybe he thinks he can do his treasure hunting on the side, but graduate school is a black hole like no other.*
There’s the classes, papers, research, readings, not to mention that he’d probably be expected to teach as well. He’d might also need a part-time job to make ends meet, because while most Ph.D programs provide a stipend, it’s usually barely enough to live on and definitely not enough to fund treasure hunting on the side. Given the way Patrick frames the family's finances, I don't get the impression that Ben's big on saving up.
*I have a less intensive graduate degree in a less intensive field, and I could barely keep my head above water doing the literal thing I was there to do. I cannot fathom attempting to run another massive project on the side.
That’s not to say, however, that Ben didn’t attend a Ph.D program at some point though.
Headcanon time
First of all, I think the story is funnier the more Ben is just “some guy.”
Similar to how I think that “retired Naval officer Ben Gates” changes the flavor of the story for the worse, I think “rogue historian Ben Gates” changes the flavor, if not for the worse than simply for the less interesting.
My personal reading of the situation is this:
Ben gets his bachelor’s in American history, develops his Charlotte-is-as-ship theory while in school, then proceeds directly into the engineering degree + Navy ROTC because he’s discovered that the Charlotte wrecked and knows he’ll need to salvage her. (When he goes to MIT Patrick’s like, thank god he’s finally doing something sensible. When he learns Ben’s doing salvage diving he’s like, well fuck.)
After school Ben salvage dives to pay the bills, and treasure hunts in his spare time. At some point either the money or his free time takes enough of a hit that Ben needs to make a change. Thus, he starts applying to Ph.D programs. And/or he needs particular resources or expertise at this point and additional study is the best way to get them.
He stays in the program for a few years, but not being able to truly pursue the treasure grates on him. Constantly being told—directly or not—that you’re stupid for what you’re interested in or for the way you want to pursue the subject absolutely sucks. (See also: my time in academia.) The derision and the strain on his treasure hunting time ware down on him until the program isn’t worth it anymore. He got what he came for, so he leaves. Ben briefly wonders if finishing with a non-treasure thesis would finally make Patrick proud of him, but decides against it.
It’s during these next years that he refines his theory, discovers critical information needed to realize that the Charlotte never actually sunk, but went adrift in the Arctic circle, recruits Ian to finance the search now that he as a tangible plan, and pulls in Riley to do the computer modeling that Ben can’t do on his own.
After he finds the treasure, his undergraduate alma matter Georgetown awards Ben an honorary doctorate. Patrick, Abigail, and Riley attend the ceremony. They’re all very proud. Ben gets unexpectedly emotional, at least on the inside. He hadn’t realized before that moment that this actually was something he wanted, and that he’d actually felt pretty torn between academic study—which he does excel at and enjoy—and treasure hunting.
Conclusion
So, there you go.
Does Ben have a Ph.D?
Only if you want him to.

Two public events are planned for Nov. 23 and Dec. 14 Did you know that the most important historic building in the state of West Virginia is located right here in the Friendly City? Like the more famous Independence Hall in Philadelphia, where both the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States were debated and adopted by the Founding Fathers of the United States, West Virginia Independence Hall was home to divisive debate and political change. According to Debbie Jones, “Wheeling is the only city to serve as the capitol of two states and West Virginia is the only state formed from the Civil War … a state born of conviction, a state born advocating for and defending the United States of America rather than the seceded states of America.”  Jones is the manager of the hall which was named a National Historic Landmark in 1988.    With all the recent construction and on-going changes in downtown Wheeling, this historic structure remains a constant reminder of our important past that we build on today.  Wheeling resident and Independence Hall Manager Debbie Jones works daily to develop new reasons to visit the state's birthplace. “We encourage Wheeling residents to stop in and learn about the importance of West Virginia Independence Hall,” said Jones. “We have a guest book visitors are welcome to sign their names and hometowns and believe it or not, most of our visitors are not from West Virginia." Jones added that locals often don’t know what the building is. “I get visitors who stop in thinking they can get a copy of their birth certificate or find an active courtroom here. They walk or drive past the building all the time, but they may not realize it’s a museum that is free and open to the public.”  Completed in 1859 for use as a United States Custom House at a cost of $96,000, West Virginia Independence Hall was built at a time when Wheeling was one of the fastest growing cities in the then-state of Virginia, second only to Richmond, according to historical research in the booklet published by the West Virginia Independence Hall Foundation.  A new Custom House was deemed necessary because of the growth in shipping and freight being delivered to Wheeling by riverboat. Wheeling was named a “port of entry” and merchants could pay their river duties in Wheeling rather than New Orleans once the Custom House opened.     Independence Hall features a flag display from the Civil War that reveals just how local infantry units were during the late 1800s. Designed in the style of Renaissance Revival architecture, the first floor became an early Post Office where residents received their mail at rented mailboxes. This area is completely restored to its original appearance and other West Virginia statehood exhibits are housed on this first floor.  The second floor of the historical structure housed the Custom Office where an official Surveyor of Customs, Thomas Hornbrook, oversaw custom duty collection and enforced navigation laws. The third floor housed the federal district courtroom, where Judge John J. Jackson Jr. presided for the entire 44 years of the Custom House and is beautifully restored to its original elegance.  The importance of the building during the nineteenth century is easy to see. Today, it is a grand look at Wheeling, its growth and stature, and its contribution to the birth of our state as a result of the Civil War.  The third floor of Independence Hall has been completely renovated so visitors can see what space was utilized during the great debate over succession from Virginia. It was not long after the Custom House opened that South Carolina seceded from the Union and a few months later, the Civil War began. As the state of Virginia joined the Confederacy and seceded from the Union in April 1861, citizens in the western regions of Wheeling, Virginia declared the acts of secession by the Virginia legislature null and void and set up the “Restored Government of Virginia,” electing Francis H. Pierpont as Governor, remaining loyal to President Abraham Lincoln and the Union.  Governor Pierpont used this building as his office during the time of the “Restored Government of Virginia.” It was at his east window that he composed the telegram to President Lincoln urging him to sign the bill for West Virginia statehood. On December 31, President Lincoln signed the bill and West Virginia achieved full statehood on June 20, 1863.  Annually, hundreds of school children visit the Hall and learn about West Virginia’s history, the Civil War and Wheeling’s past.  Visitors can also view 13 original Civil War battle flags in a special exhibit on the second floor. Beyond these and other important relics now on display at West Virginia Independence Hall, there is a gift shop and special public programs planned throughout the year.     West Virginia Independence Hall is shown with the impressive statue of Francis Pierpont, the governor of the "Restored State of Virginia." The statue was erected in June 2015. Coming up soon is a free lecture featuring professional storyteller Judi Tarowsky at 11 a.m., Saturday, Nov. 23 entitled, “When Sisters Were Soldiers.” Her program looks at the history of Wheeling Hospital before the outbreak of the Civil War. Guests will learn how the Sisters of St. Joseph operated the hospital when the Union Army took over the facility during the war, making the nuns honorary members of the army.    In December, there will be a free public concert by the nine-piece Community Serenade Band that features holiday music and light refreshments. This event takes place from noon to 1:30 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 14.   Located at 1528 Market Street in downtown Wheeling, and operated by the West Virginia Department of Arts, Culture and History, West Virginia Independence Hall has free admission, parking and is open to the public Tuesday through Saturday.  For more information, please contact Jones at 304-238-1300 or visit WVIH’s on Facebook.

1955 ZÜNDAPP 246CC DB255 ELASTIC REGISTRATION NO. 55-WW-20 (ROI) FRAME NO. 929064 ENGINE NO. 4077
Favorable taxation and licensing laws made '200cc' machines immensely popular in Germany, most of whose domestic manufacturers were represented in the class. Based on a pre-war design, the DB200 marked Zündapp's return to motorcycle production in 1947. The 196cc two-stroke single was of unitary construction and featured twin exhausts while the cycle parts consisted of a tubular-steel frame equipped with pressed-steel girder-type front fork. The DB200 developed through models 201-204 before an entirely new spine-type frame debuted in 1953 on the DB205 Elastic, so called on account of its hydraulically damped suspension. A 246cc version, the DB255, was offered for 1954. 
More powerful than Villiers-engined machines of similar size, the Zündapps were likewise streets ahead of the average British stroker in terms of build quality. Highly original and in running condition, this Elastic is offered with ROI Motor Tax Application Form, Vehicle Registration Certificate and its original US Certificate of Title issued to Frank C Cretelle of Philadelphia in July 1955. Harry acquired the machine in 1992.
