since you guys already passed judgement on this guy, I think I remember him stating in a prior interview that he did have an engineering degree however I can't confirm

Seems hard to believe since ugk has been around since i was a kid and he was barely over being a kid. Stranger things have happened though.

Be more specific...

regarding his education?
i'm sorry but I can't, its hearsay I can't recall for 100% and can't find anything online about it. but I remember hearing something about this on a radio interview he did probably on some mixtape I have or some shit.

my google-fu is weak

timeline wise, i can't think of when he would be even able to get a 2year degree or even 4year. 05 = trill, 08 = 2 trill, 10 = trill og and those are just "his" albums. 07 = underground kingz, 09 = ugk 4 life. And that's not including the classics, southern way, riding dirty, too hard to swallow, etc...

BTW as the article that Roliath posted, Bun B is a guest lecture. All the "He shouldn't be a professor" stuff is a little overboard. He's going to a few of the classes and talking for a while. He's not grading papers and assisting student's with their thesis projects.
