replies: text: Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. You'd need a reliable source to change it to that, on the flip side, the existing claim has no source either.  What I've done is tagged that sentence as needing a citation and hopefully someone interested in the topic will do some digging and offer a reliable source. —  (e • t • c) 15:19, 1 July 2014 (UTC)

text: *I could not find a specific year.  However, the IndyStar article used to extensively improve the Early life section makes it clear he graduated from FAMU long before he started acting professionally. I think the 1993 graduation date is erroneous, though he could have gone back for post-graduate work. Hence the 1993 date has been removed. Dwpaul Talk    15:26, 1 July 2014 (UTC)

text: *Having found some other refs, it seems he transferred to the drama program at FAMU from Wilmington College, but left before he completed his degree. However, he eventually received a degree from FAMU; it may have been an honorary degree, which would explain why it could well have been after (or about the same time as) the cancellation of Designing Women in 1993.  The current president of FAMU issued a tribute to him (but only on Facebook, as far as I can tell) that described him as an alumnus.  Still looking for a good ref.
