Obama Not Given Honorary Degree after ASU Commencement Speech

Uh seriously!?! Speakers at graduation ceremonies are typically awarded honorary degrees as a sign of respect and appreciation. Arizona State officials, however, decided that despite becoming America’s first black president, his “body of work is yet to come” and refused to give him a degree. RIDICULOUS, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart did more than I ever could to reveal just how insane a gesture this is, especially from a somewhat crappy ass school like ASU. I'm surprised he even spoke there!!
