Charles Darwin Institute of Technology (CHIT) in Boston, Massachusetts is the first institution of higher learning to award Certificates of Existence along with diplomas for earned degrees. The certificates are in support of the Progressive Abortion Law (PAL) legislation currently being considered by the Massachusetts legislature.

Let's not be hasty here. Surely existence is more appropriately conferred upon the receipt of a master's or professional degree, i.e. when the fetus has at least given some token back to its field.
