Washington University is a private university in St. Louis, Missouri, best known for its medical school.
In 2008, Washington University decided to award Phyllis Schlafly an honorary doctorate of humane letters.
"Wearing white armbands, Washington University faculty and students staged a silent protest as conservative activist Phyllis Schlafly was awarded an honorary degree." [2]
After receiving her award, Dr.Schlafly said about the disrespectful liberals, "I'm not sure they're mature enough to graduate." Schlafly also "expressed some disappointment that Chancellor Mark Wrighton did not mention homemaker in his list of some of the career paths students were embarking on." [3]
