    Your Right Excellency Honorable Eminence, sir.
    3/17/2003
    If you meet with foreign dignitaries, heads of state, religious leaders, or military personnel, you had better know your forms of address. After all, deans can be of universities (academic) or cathedrals (cleric). And you don't want to be caught mixing up a "your Eminence" with a "your Excellency." Is it very reverend or just plain reverend? The InformationPlease site on forms of address helps you sort out the proper greetings for academics, clerics, government officials, military and naval officers, and other professionals. Proper address for your boss? That's up to you, we think.
