Great to know that the board members at Tufts University see Armstrong as what he truly is. A cheater. So, there goes his honorary degree. From a hero to a zero. Revoked! No pass. F!

University Rescinds Armstrong's Honorary Degree
http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/university-rescinds-honorary-degree-awarded-lance-armstrong_663723.html

is that university located in a cave? or built under a rock perhaps?
they honored lance in 2006. hell, even Phil Ligett by that time must already have had a good hunch that lance might be cheating.
 
"Lance Armstrong" and "college degree" probably don't belong in the same sentence.
 
Looks like even the 'free' stuff is being reclaimed....will it go so far as being removed from the " Nigerian Prince has left you his fortune" emails......??

It wasn't just a degree. The bloke was a Ph.D. Dr Lance Armstrong.

Wrong. Phil still believes Lance is clean.

Not quite. He hasn't been able to bring himself to say "I think Lance doped", but he has still said things like "If everyone else doped in that era, I find it hard to believe that such success would be possible clean".

they give you an honory GED,

sweet



Armstrong never graduated from high school. His mommy had to write the school principal multiple letters to petition the school to allow Armstrong to miss entire semesters. Can you imagine lil' Lancey pooh? Waaah waaaah. Mommy, why won't they let me get away with not taking all those stupid tests at school? I am representing the entire country. I deserve special treatment.
 
Lance deserves a Pharmacy degree based on real life experience alone. No need for university.

I would like to see Phil Liggit held accountable for the stupid things he said attacking USADA an Lance's accusers just a few monthes ago.
 
Phil is just a harmless old git, really, that was probably on Lance's payroll. They were certainly friends. If you were a friend of Lance's, would you really have acted differently when the word came out? I can't fault him for his loyalty, no matter how misguided that might have been.
 
i love it. i can take the piss out of a friend of mine who graduated from there. one kind of has to wonder about Tufts' judgment awarding sir-dopes-alot an honorary degree in the first place.😀

Wow, I haven't seen one of those for about twenty years!!! There were only about 4 people on the internet then, clearly including you, me, and the bloke in Nairobi, California. Who was the other one?
 
What was the phd in?

Pharmacy?
Accountancy ?
Psychology?
Criminology?

Nah. No degree earned. Just back pay for serving as a guinea pig in non-clinical trials.
