    Kanye West's Honorary Doctorate Revoked Due To Anti-Semitism Remarks

    The decision to revoke Kanye West's honorary doctorate was made in response to a change.org petition.
    This honorary doctorate was awarded to the rapper in 2015.
    "We informed the SAIC community this morning," a school spokeswoman told the Sun-Times, reported The Hollywood Reporter.
    Regardless of his contributions prior to receipt of this award, it is harmful to allow Ye, as he is presently known, to continue to use the School of the Art Institute of Chicago to help legitimize hatred and violence," the petition partly read, according to the outlet.
