Florida U. Awarding Posthumous Degree to Trayvon Martin
-------------------------------------------------------

Florida University will be awarding Trayvon Martin with a posthumous
degree in aeronautical science in a ceremony with his parents Saturday.
The degree aims to honor the African-American teenager's dream of
becoming a pilot, before he was murdered by white neighborhood watch
vigilante George Zimmerman in 2012.
