So? It just defines the actual value of an honorary degree - it's a gift and nothing actually earned.

Well, if you know of any being handed out to a guy like me, then, tell me where to sign-up and I'll be there, on time, an wearing a new suit (one that fits, too!) :D

Oh, no! You have to wear a gown and cap just like all the others up on the stage. Now, what you wear under it is at your discretion, :wink: :wink:
