(4.10.09) — arizona state university made the decision (apparently now under reconsideration) to not award Barack Obama with an honorary degree from the school when the president comes to speak at commencement.
Arizona State’s decision is in contrast with another institution at which Obama will be giving a graduation address, Notre Dame.
Notre Dame, on the other hand, is awash in controversy over its choice to permit Obama to speak at the Catholic school at all.
Obama is often referred to as one of abortion’s most ardent supporters in government, and his near-flawless record in support of the procedure has drawn outrage from many students, faculty and supporters of the Indiana university who find it offensive that Notre Dame would go against its Catholic underpinnings just so as to have Obama address its graduates.

May 13, 2009 - President Barack Obama Speaks at arizona state university Commencement
President Obama delivered the commencement address at Arizona State University on Wednesday night.
Obama began by gently teasing ASU officials over the controversy involving the school not awarding him an honorary degree:
Now, before I begin, I’d like to clear the air about that little controversy everyone was talking about a few weeks back. I have to tell you, I really thought it was much ado about nothing, although I think we all learned an important lesson. I learned to never again pick another team over the Sun Devils in my NCAA bracket. And your university President and Board of Regents will soon learn all about being audited by the IRS.
