I will never forget Mike Tyson being granted a honorary doctorate by Central State University in 1989 and remarking during his acceptance speech he "Don King and I were discussing what kind of doctor I am. After seeing all these beautiful sistas here I was debating whether I should be a gynecologist..."

So Dr. Winston is in some skrong company.

Central State University granted Tyson an honorary doctorate in 1989.

Ironically, Tyson dropped out of high school when he was just a junior and never graduated. But Central State gave both him and Don King honorary Doctorate in Humane Letters degrees. "Mike demonstrates that hard work, determination, and perseverance can enable one to overcome any obstacles," Central State president Arthur Thomas said at the time. Hmmm...No high school degree required?

FSU's academic standards are probably only slightly higher than CSU's.

Tyson talked about that incident in his autobiography (which is excellent and brutally honest) that came out last year. Tyson detailed many, many incidents in which he was crude or vulgar toward women, but said in his book that he actually thought the comment would be taken as a compliment.
