And this isn't a high school. It's a world-renowned university. No shortage of more qualified candidates, who've published more.

Professor means something specific in a university context. Generally, in America, which is what the creators are familiar with, one is hired as an assistant professor, then if they get tenure, they become an associate professor. Then one becomes simply a professor (disambiguated as a "full" professor). This is the basis of my assumption of his professorship.
