Can you think of a better single, instant indicator that someone is educated?

Why do you need a single, instant indicator that isn't even reliable? Once again, degree ≠ education.

I did use the word educated in my last sentence, but the point I intended to convey is that instead of asking whether someone is "educated," employers and hyperjudgmental social peers should ask whether they're capable of doing their job and participating in an interesting conversation.
