I have been struggling with these two concepts.
I think someone can be very well educated but I would not always refer to them as an intellectual.
There are people that I have known who are not well educated formally but are well read and have self-studied and fall into the category of intellectual.
I think that intellectuals look beyond the educated word in their reasoning and their thinking.
There are people that have many degrees but are still hidden within a "box".
