Nominations for honorary degrees may be submitted by any member of the University community or the public on an ongoing basis throughout the year. The Senate Governance Committee reviews, in confidence, all nominations received and forwards its recommendations to Senate for consideration. Due to confidentiality, Senate does not report on the results of its deliberations.

Honorary degrees are normally awarded at both Spring and Fall Convocations.

Nomination forms and guidelines are available at: brocku.ca/university-secretariat/honorary-degrees or by contacting the Office of the University Secretariat, x3334 or x4307. In order to ensure that nominations are considered for the June 2010 Convocation, nomination forms should be submitted to the Office of the University Secretariat, ST1107, by Jan. 22, 2010.
