Honorary Degrees

Each year Haverford College awards honorary degrees to individuals who have distinguished themselves in letters, the sciences, or the arts. Recipients are customarily announced in the spring months preceding Commencement. Many honorees are noted for their contributions to the overall betterment of humankind and/or Haverford College.
