Florida Memorial University is awarding Treyvon Martin a posthumous degree.

At its commencement ceremony on May 13, Florida Memorial University will present a posthumous honorary degree to Trayvon Martin, the Florida teenager killed by George Zimmerman five years ago.

The private university announced Wednesday that Martin’s parents, Sabrina Fulton and Tracy Martin, will accept a bachelor of science degree in aeronautical science with a concentration in flight education on behalf of their son.

The degree is in “honor of the steps he took during his young life toward becoming a pilot,” the school said in a Facebook post.  Florida Memorial’s Department of Aviation and Safety has a designated Cessna pilot training center, and the school also houses the Trayvon Martin Foundation. It is based in Miami Gardens, where Trayvon Martin lived with his father.

When I first heard honorary degree, I figured a Doctor of Letters.  Those are worthless honoraries.  Nope, he gets a real BS in aviation science.   That’s a serious degree.  It’s sad to know that it’s is now been reduced to a worthless piece of paper by the school.

I feel bad for the students who earned that degree to find out its now a fancy bit of ass wipe paper.

Why aviation science?   Apparently Treyvon wanted to be a pilot.  I wonder how having drugs in his system played into that since drug use is the fastest way to not get FAA certification.

Never mind.  The cult of St. Trayvon wanted to bestow another offering to their incorruptible. 

Just another school that responsible business owners won’t hire from.

    I don’t think getting high counts as steps to become a pilot. I may have to check with FAA though.
