In 1976, Cosby earned a Doctor of Education (Ed.D) degree from the University of Massachusetts. For his doctoral research, he wrote a dissertation entitled, "An Integration of the Visual Media Via 'Fat Albert And The Cosby Kids' Into the Elementary School Curriculum as a Teaching Aid and Vehicle to Achieve Increased Learning".
Bill Cosby never earned a Ph.D., and it is therefore inappropriate to place "Ph.D." behind his name. The difference between a Ph.D. and an Ed.D. is significant.
Ph.D. curriculum typically emphasizes more breadth and depth in theory and research methodology than the Ed.D. Ph.D. programs typically emphasize deeper knowledge about specific topical areas, and often require twice the course work of an Ed.D, with special emphasis in research and teaching. Ed.D. programs typically emphasize less rigorous "practical interests", such as clinical work and surveys.
Bill Cosby has received multiple "honorary degrees", most commonly a degree called a "Doctor of Honorary Letters". But Cosby has never received a Ph.D.
Persons who have never earned a Ph.D. engage in questionable ethics by appending the title "Dr." in front of their name. Although at one time, it was considered appropriate for the recipient of an honorary degree to call themselves "Dr.", generally, this is no longer the case. This is because in the mid-Twentieth Century, universities began the practice of bestowing honorary doctoral degrees on large donors to the university, thereby diluting the implied importance fo the title, and creating controversy in professional circles.
Bill Cosby famously stumbled into this ethical controversy in the 1980's by prefixing his name with the title "Dr." in the credits of a few of the episodes of "The Cosby Show". However, following complaints from viewers, he soon removed the appellation "Dr." from his name in the credits.

Where is the word Shakespeare located in the Bible?
Okay go get your Bible if you have one around. Go to Psalm chapter 46. From the beginning count 46 words. You'll see "shake". Then count 46 words back from the end of the chapter. You'll see "spear". Some people say Shakespeare helped in writing this chapter in the King James version. I'm not saying it's what I believe I'm just throwing it out there. Hope this helps =D.
