Omarosa Manigault Newman has been known as many things over the span of her career: writer, political aide, and a stand-out contestant on the show The Apprentice are just a few. And while it is probably hard for most of our readers to relate to her experiences as a TV star or butt of a Stephen Colbert joke that compares her book to day old sushi, there is one thing may of us can relate to. Omarosa just got her JD! HBCU Gameday has coverage:
Omarosa Manigault Newman has once again demonstrated her deep connection to HBCUs by graduating with both a Juris Doctor and a Master of Business Administration from Southern University Law Center (SULC), an HBCU located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. This marks her third degree from a Historically Black College or University, underscoring her enduring commitment to HBCU excellence and empowerment.
As if the dual JD/MBA wasn’t enough, she also earned membership in the Order of Barristers and starred on Hulu’s Got To Get Out! You can listen to her talk about the show here:
Much respect to her time management and good luck on the bar!
