Yes, and the previous Care of Magical Creatures teacher was Professor 
Kettleburn, so it's not a matter of the material. At the same time, 
though, 
Lockhart doesn't have a shred of academic credentials that we know of 
(when 
would he have accumulated them?), and the odds are neither does Lupin 
or 
Moody, and yet all three are called Professor.

Now me:
Possibly the wizard world has the same sexism that we find in the
real 
world--witness the fact that we have numerous honorifics for women 
depending on their marital status, or their unwillingness to divulge 
it!  Men, however, are Mr. after a certain age, period.
Is there any male teacher besides Hagrid who is not called Professor?
I would assume that he has been called Hagrid for so long that 
changing it now would be awkward.
Back to lurkdom, till the next time.
