The Legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Martin Luther King, Jr. came to Boston University in 1951, searching for a multicultural community and a setting for his study of ethics and philosophy. He became âDr. Kingâ by earning a Ph.D. in systematic theology here in 1955. During these years, Howard Thurman was named dean of the Universityâs Marsh Chapel.
Because he was both a Ph.D. and a pastor, King is sometimes called the Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King Jr. (abbreviation: the Rev. Dr. King), or just Dr. King. He is also known by his initials MLK. King worked hard to make people understand that not only blacks, but that all races should always be treated equally to white people.
