University president Rev. Mark L. Poorman, C.S.C., invites the University community to nominate candidates for the University’s annual presentation of honorary doctorates (pictured: 2015 honorary doctorate recipient Larree Renda). Such men and women have in a remarkable way encapsulated the University’s dedication to teaching and learning, faith and formation, and service and leadership in the classroom, residence halls, and the world, and are notable in their professions and/or communities for dedication, commitment, creativity, service, and the manner in which they have turned their talents to the common good.
Nominations should be sent to Tom Greene, provost, at greene@up.edu, preferably by the end of June. Names should be accompanied by a short explanation of the candidate’s life and work.
