	Medicine Crow to receive honorary degree from USC

		In Medicine Crow's case, the coup stick was a gun that was knocked from his hands during a struggle with an enemy soldier whom he disarmed, but left alive, thereby completing two deeds in one action.
		Having earned his war chief title, Medicine Crow tried to return to USC to complete his studies but found that the department had been closed for the war effort and would not be reactivated for a time.
