BOSTON (AP) — While other Harvard University students were writing papers for their senior theses, Obasi Shaw was busy rapping his.

Shaw is the first student in Harvard’s history to submit a rap album as a senior thesis in the English Department, the university said. The album, called “Liminal Minds,” has earned the equivalent of an A-minus grade, good enough to guarantee that Shaw will graduate with honors next week.

Was it substantive? If so, I don't see the problem. Not like he's going to be an engineer or something.

Harvard undergraduates aren’t obligated to submit senior theses, but most departments require it to graduate with honors. Often it takes the form of a research paper, but students can apply to turn in an artistic work as a creative thesis. Some submit screenplays, novels or poetry collections.


Given that this was the English department, this is barely any different than the poetry collections. Also it sounds like it was pretty sophisticated.

Absolutely fair next. TC is a shitposter who is bitter about his own failings in life.
