As a person who worked a full-time-job while in college, I don’t respect the fact that people receive honorary degrees. Go to class, study and earn your education. Today’s degree can be easily earned via online. Pretty Vee has money, she should earn it!!!!

[@nastystew6942]

An honorary degree is nothing but a certificate of achievement on a higher level

[@Alleycat20507]

I think there are be notable exemptions though. In the music field, Oscar Peterson a nationally renowned jazz pianist received a honorary doctorate for his lifelong dedication to his craft. His stuff has indeed been taught in many college/university programs worldwide. Someone of his caliber definitely earned it. Unfortunately, I see those honorary doctorates handed out way more often than deserved. My real doctorate and I couldn’t care less, but it is noticeable.

[@MarcusMartn]

I agree

[@VesperJester]

Well I think if there are ppl who dedicate their lives to a certain subject or craft especially where they’ve made significant impact or changed the game, then an honorary degrees is fine.

[@VesperJester]

My only critique is I wish Perry would delve into different genres or hire ppl who can do that for him. Because he’s one of the rare few Black owned movie studios. So it’d be cool to get an action, horror or a sci-fi film from his studio.

[@FelaKuti8000]

Tyler Perry although a supporter of minorities etc. but he needs to hire more black writers who can create broader stories to evoke more thought and multi dimensions of black experiences etc because his way has ended as it hasn't evolved still looking like his plays from way back when as well as depicting us one dimensionally as well as making us look clown like

[@wabz.z]

This caz his soaps are good but there’s something off about the scripts and the delivery, from If Loving You Is Wrong, Sistas, Zatima, Ruthless, etc. idk what it is exactly could be the editing or the deliver but something’s off.

[@businessbuilder92]

@@user-tq9bw3tv4n i disagree you can get through an advanced hs diploma with "just studying" but college takes a much higher level of dedication. There is a reason people average a- in high-school and the exact same person averages c+ at college. 80% of the young people attending are studying and not even half of them are graduating that's evidence it's not that easy. I guess the classes I took were some of the hardest available so maybe thats part of why I see it that way. Also I do suppose my experience could be different than others but still graduating is a big accomplishment, are you suggesting it isn't?
