Professors join efforts to revoke Trump degree

Some professors at Lehigh University are pushing for the school to revoke President Donald Trump's honorary degree.  Trump received the degree after giving the commencement address in 1988.  A recent graduate of the Bethlehem university started a petition asking the school to pull the degree after Trump said both sides were to blame for the deadly white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.  The professors involved say Trump is an embarrassment to Lehigh University.  The Lehigh Board of Trustees will make the decision next month.
