Pomp and happenstance
THE ANNUAL tradition of universities bestowing honorary degrees on dignitaries may be more trouble than it's worth. The University of Massachusetts gave an honorary doctorate to Zimbabwe's president, Robert Mugabe, in 1986, and now the pressure is on to revoke the honor, since the African statesman has proven to be a despotic thug. The University of Edinburgh stripped Mugabe of its honorary degree last year, but Michigan State University, where Mugabe received a doctorate in 1990, has so far demurred.
