Arthur Candy

From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

Professor Arthur Candy was on the faculty of Luna University's archaeology department. Much of his research centred on the Doctor and he concluded that the Doctor had a generally negative and dangerous effect on history. (PROSE: Continuity Errors)

In 5123, he conducted River Song's graduate admissions interview. In response to his query as to her motivation to study archaeology, she cryptically answered that she was "looking for a good man." Given their shared research focus, it is reasonable to assume that he was her academic adviser during her doctoral studies. (TV: Let's Kill Hitler)
