Most folks who have completed at least a two year course of academic study at a university end up with an academic degree. High school or a more limited course of study and you can earn a diploma.

Ahh. Now I see what you were saying. Have you considered that he was just calling the piece of paper the diploma, because I was thinking the same thing. The degree is what I earned and cannot be taken away or given away. The diploma is just the piece of paper.
I’m sure that’s his plan as well. He makes a big deal about sending his “diploma” back, but his resume will still show that he has the degree.
