University of Ediacara

Degrees:

The University does, of course, grant degrees up to the doctoral level, by mail-order. If you send $100 to the Registrar (email only; no cash, cheques or credit cards accepted), you will receive a handsome diploma suitable for framing and hanging on the wall (perhaps in the smallest room of your house), just as soon as we can figure out what colour(s) it should be.

As to the Dean's suggestion for honorary doctorates, the list, at the moment, is as follows (dissenting comments noted and in the tradition of academic institutions everywhere, totally ignored. The Dean was particulary taken aback by the comments about leather chairs, brandy snifters and Cuban cigars - far to close to the mark, or as the Dean put it, "Who let that lowlife into my office?")
