University of Missouri has officially revoked its Honorary degree awarded to American Comedian and actor Bill Cosby.
The System President of the University Mun Y. Choi stated the reason for the University’s Decision.

“The evidence presented during the recent criminal trial indicated that (Cosby) engaged in behavior that is in direct conflict with the core values of the University of Missouri,” he said.
