St Andrews University says it will not strip
disgraced Northern Ireland-born cardinal Keith O'Brien of his honorary
degree.
The university considered revoking the 2004 award following a request from a member of staff. Cardinal O'Brien, originally from Ballycastle, resigned from the Archdiocese of St Andrews & Edinburgh in 2013 after several priests accused him of inappropriate behaviour.
