Same way you grant degrees in Law Enforcement to people who've never worked 
for the police.  UMKC's law department is PROUD that none of their graduates 
have practical field experience - it might contaminate their academic purity.

Want an easy bar bet with an EE?  Offer to stick a screwdriver into a live 
wall outlet.  Any decent tech knows how to work with live circuitry, but an 
EE will shrivel up like a spider on a stove at the suggestion.
