Getting a Doctorate: An Honorary One

Filed under: Things As They Are — anileklavya @ 6:56 pm

Which is the better option for getting a doctorate: one of the best educational institutions in India or Reality TV in UK? Now you have the answer.

So here is a four step guide to get an honorary doctorate:

  1. Become a silent but visible victim of racism
  2. Let there be some protest
  3. Then pretend nothing really happened
  4. Forget-and-forgive the offender and express admiration for the offender’s community/nation/whatever

Et voila! you become a Doctor. Perhaps, sometime later, the offender might as well get a doctorate by some reputed Indian university. Quid pro quo?

Why not? That’s what civilization is all about.
