Easy peasy. They were the first four ship names of the Mercury space program.

Freedom 7
Liberty Bell 7
Friendship 7
Aurora 7

(as well as Sigma 7 and Faith 7. There was, ironically, no seventh Mercury launch. The program was deemed a success and NASA moved on to the two-person Gemini program.)

Your turn!

Just a note. . . I checked, PC's degree was in the Arts, it was the fact that he took a Univ. Degree that was different from the other royals. I guess that he has a Masters now as well.

You got it! Though I was actually thinking of advertising for Madison Ave. Fashion is Seventh Ave.

Your turn, my dear!

According to wiki:
Between 57th Street and 85th Street, Madison Avenue is identified as “the fashionable road”. In this area is where most of the very well known fashion designers and upper class hair salons are located.

Although the other half said "Advertising" when I asked him what it made him think of.

I will have a quartet in a moment.
