Howard University, located in Washington DC, the United States, shared on Twitter that its College of Fine Arts has officially been renamed after its past student and late actor Chadwick Boseman.

“Yesterday, the letters were installed over the now official Chadwick A. Boseman College of Fine Arts” tweeted the school on Sept 3. It was first announced back in May that the performing and visual arts school would be renamed after the Black Panther star who passed away a year ago after a four-year battle against colon cancer, at the age of 43.
