Five universities have revoked honorary degrees for Bill Cosby since he was found guilty of aggravated indecent assault Thursday, The Daily Beast reports.
Cosby was convicted of drugging and sexually assaulting plaintiff Andrea Constand in 2004 and faces up to 30 years in prison. Since the end of his trial, Temple University, Notre Dame University, Johns Hopkins University, Wesleyan University, and Carnegie Mellon University have all reportedly rescinded Cosby's honorary degrees.
Even before Cosby was found guilty, colleges and universities began to disavow him. Deadline reports that the University of San Francisco, Fordham University, Oberlin College, Ohio State University, Tufts University, Brown University, Baylor University, and Boston University all revoked honorary degrees for Cosby over the charges.
Cosby has not yet been sentenced following his conviction.
