Replacing physicist as a title[edit]

James Renwick Sr, best known as professor at Columbia, would be better defined as PROFESSOR or SCIENTIST or ENGINEER rather than physicist. He taught natural philosophy, chemistry and experimental philosophy, as well as all the engineering courses the college offered. Anybody have thoughts on revising this?
