Honorary Degree Recipients
It is a Commencement tradition to recognize several distinguished individuals through the presentation of honorary degrees and other awards and medals. One honorary degree recipient will deliver remarks on behalf of their fellow honorees. Sanna Marin, the third female Prime Minister of Finland and youngest prime minister in Finland’s history, will speak on behalf of the honorary degree recipients.
