  > Can't this be fixed easily by another university bestowing an honorary degree to this guy then? No. That’s a technical solution to a political problem. But, we’re on HN! Does anyone have a good English translation of the relevant statute? The loopholes to a certificate problem are with the certification authority—how is a compliant degree defined?

    Cancelling his degree is just as technical a solution to a political problem.

      Sure but Erdogan can just have him cut up for kebab if he doesn't take the hint. Not so the other way around.
