It’s NOW DR. O’NEAl!<br />
Congratulations to Shaquille O’Neal for recently<br />
earning his Ph.D. in Leadership and Education<br />
with a specialization in Human Resource<br />
Development from Barry University in Miami<br />
Shores, Fla. He has more than fulfilled a promise he<br />
made to his parents when he left LSU early to become<br />
the No. 1 overall pick by the Orlando Magic in 1992.<br />
Promising to finish his undergraduate degree, he fulfilled<br />
that during his playing career with the Magic,<br />
L.A. Lakers, Miami Heat, Phoenix Suns, Cleveland Cavaliers<br />
and Boston Celtics.<br />
In addition to keeping his promise to his parents,<br />
O’Neal revealed to ABC News that he also wanted to<br />
continue his education and challenge himself. So has<br />
he finally finished his education? No, it seems that this<br />
fun-loving athlete, whose thesis was on the value of<br />
humor in leadership, is now looking at law school.<br />
Thanks for continuing to be a positive role model.<br />
