Antonio Villaraigosa, UCLA graduate and mayor of Los Angeles, gave a commencement speech at USC last month, at which time USC generously awarded him an honorary doctorate.
This week, Villaraigosa delivered a commencement speech at UCLA, in which he made the point that UCLA, unlike USC, does not confer honorary degrees.
“You’ve got to earn your diploma from UCLA!” he said.
HA HA HA! Good one, Mr. Mayor!
Why don’t you go flunk the bar exam a few more times, genius? They don’t give that away either.
