UW-Madison awards former student, faculty member with honorary degrees

Musician Steve Miller and former UW-Madison faculty member Thomas Brock received this year’s honorary degrees for excellence in their careers.  Recipients of the honorary degrees award are often known for a single achievement in their career. However, the award is not meant to celebrate one achievement but rather a career-long dedication to values that coincide with the university’s beliefs. Recipients are often affiliated with the university as well.
