ASU will not award President Barack Obama an honorary degree when he speaks at the commencement ceremony on May 13.
University spokeswoman Sharon Keeler said Tuesday that the University awards honorary degrees to recognize individuals for their work and accomplishments spanning their lifetime.
Because President Obamas body of work is yet to come, its inappropriate to recognize him at this time, Keeler said.
Previous recipients of honorary degrees from ASU had long-established careers in their fields of work, Keeler said, and they arent necessarily affiliated with ASU.
Last spring, the University awarded an honorary degree to James Duderstadt, a professor emeritus of the University of Michigan and an international leader in higher education.
In 2006, degrees went to Wu Qidi, vice minister of education of the Peoples Republic of China, and Frank H. T. Rhodes, former president of Cornell University.
Keeler said there are typically only one or two people each year who receive an honorary degree from ASU, though the University will not award one this spring.
Calling Fr. Jenkins, calling Fr. Jenkins...
Thanks.
