I like scholar too. It's derived from the Greek word for leisure. School and scholarly things were thought to be leisurely activities because they were for people not required to till the fields or fight wars. It's truly a fortunate position to be a scholar, and I think the people at this school should relish in it.
Yeah, but work meant ascholia in Greek, which is the opposite of schole, and at an Apprenticeship you are possibly lectured at your leisure, but you are also working, so the term scholar fails in this regard.
