Kanye West once bragged about having a PHD, but he wasn't talking about a doctorate. Today, the rapper has been honored by the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, awarding him an honorary doctorate in fine arts.

The rapper accepted his award with a speech, making a joke about George W. Bush, speaking on Paul McCartney's co-sign and more.
