Howard University has announced it’s naming its newly-reestablished College of Fine Arts after alumnus and late actor Chadwick Boseman.
Boseman graduated from Howard in 2000 with a bachelor’s degree in directing. He went on to star in blockbuster films like “Black Panther.”
He died last August at the age of 43 from colon cancer.
