UMASS: Give Stephen T. Colbert an Honorary Law Degree

On May 14th, 2008, Stephen Colbert made it known on his Comedy Central television show The Colbert Report that Umass was attempting to rescind an honorary law degree awarded to Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe in the 1980's. This is a petition to convince the board of trustees at Umass that Stephen Colbert is worthy of this award, and should be next years recipient of an honorary degree.
