Words of widsom from Dal's Fall Convocation honorary degree recipients

- October 9, 2015

Even though it's part of a storied tradition, every Dal Convocation season is a little bit different. For example, not every Convocation features a marriage proposal, or a flute peformance in lieu of a lengthy honorary doctorate speech.

One of the more unique parts of Convocation is the presentation of an honorary doctorate, the highest honour the university can bestow. This fall Dalhousie presented honorary degrees to aviation leader Joseph David Randell, psychology researcher Kenneth Denton Craig and folk musician Christopher Norman.
