Because it has zero impact on my life?

Does it impact yours?

The question wasn't addressed to you, but since you chose to butt in please continue to live in your little bubble.....

So what?

Why can't you answer how it impacts you? Or do you just deflect because you don't have a good answer?

If there's a reason why this should have me concerned feel free to educate me.

I don't owe you any justifications, that's for sure! And keep living in your bubble and read/ponder only the news that 'impacts' you. Good luck in life!

Because you have nothing to offer. Challenged to articulate why this story bothers you so much and you're unable to come up with a response. It's sad.

Exactly! But careful, you are about to be labeled a 'racist' by some genius posters around here.

If I had a dollar for every time those said geniuses have thrown their favorite word at me.

I would probably buy myself a McLaren 720S.

If this topic doesn't concern you then why so many posts in the thread?

Universities award meaningless degrees all the time. Do you throw away Princeton degrees because they gave a doctorate to Muhammad Ali?

It certainly cheapens the degree.

Ali had an IQ of 75. He couldn't spell Princeton.

All of my posts have been about questioning why this matters so much to some posters.

Then of course I got into a pissing contest with someone who couldn't get over me referring to FMU as an online college.

Why can no one articulate a reason why this bothers them?

Florida Memorial University? Is that even a real school?

I said something to the effect that this is a subject just different enough to mention but it's not worth so many pages for sure.

It may not be in the correct forum. OT perhaps.

Yes but truth be told, I've lived in Florida since 1991 and I have never heard of it. It's in a bad part of town apparently.

Why can no one articulate a reason?

"Here is a degree because you are Black and got your arse deep sixed when you violently attacked someone."

If you have to ask. No amount of logic will make you understand.

Wonder why this 'university' (what a joke) isn't bestowing honorary degrees on Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom?

*mic drop*

Because they're too chickenshit to say it.
