Today, it was announced that Wyclef has been appointed as a visiting fellow in the Department of Africana Studies at Brown University in Rhode Island. For the 2010-11 semester, Clef will partake in lectures and events that support the school’s Haitian initiative. In a statement Clef said:
“I hope to make a genuine contribution to the rich intellectual community at the University and to its Haitian Initiative in particular.”
Earlier this year, the rapper was awarded a honoary doctorate from Western Connecticut State University in Connecitcut and in March he was honored at Harvard University.
of course this would get no comment. it’s no a Drake leak, anything Em, Kanye leaks, hate 50, posts.
but props to this man for setting examples in the hip hop community. need more like this and out comments and concerns would make more sense on the net and more.
odc stop drinking that haterade
thats where some of these haters on rap radar need to be going university !
True talk. Wyclef needs to keep making moves like this instead of for the presidential theatrics
@Haters are annoying

I’m so confused. He’s been getting honorary degrees from fucking harvard now a fellowship at brown and he gets lambasted everywhere?

I guess this is a step in the right direction. But seriously, he needs to just sign up for a bachelors degree program. Add some business, politics, and law to the Haiti curriculum, and then I might believe he’s taken this seriously and not just doing this for positive publicity.
-_-
Please don’t tell me hes gonna run for Prime Minister next time around…
