SUNY Honorary Degree Nominations Due Wednesday, Oct. 5

[Office of the President]

Dear Campus Community:

SUNY Plattsburgh is seeking nominations for the Honorary Doctorate Degree
from the State University of New York, which is the highest form of
recognition offered by SUNY to persons of exceptional distinction.

Nominees should be distinguished individuals whose achievements and/or
contributions to society on the state, national or international levels
justify them for an honorary doctorate degree from the State University of
New York.

Further details on criteria, a listing of past recipients and more are
online here: *https://www.plattsburgh.edu/about/president-leadership/honorary-doctorate-degrees-nominations.html
<https://www.plattsburgh.edu/about/president-leadership/honorary-doctorate-degrees-nominations.html>*
.

Please submit your nomination by Wednesday, Oct. 5. These may be sent
to *president_office at plattsburgh.edu
<president_office at plattsburgh.edu>*.

Nominating faculty, staff and students are asked to provide a one-page
statement explaining why the person should be recommended for an Honorary
Doctorate Degree. The statement should include information on the relevance
and/or appropriateness of the nominee(s), their national or international
reputation as well as any connections to SUNY Plattsburgh. Detailed
curriculum vitae, Who's Who entries, reviews or articles about the
nominee's work, and/or list of major awards can also be submitted but are
not required at this stage.

If a nomination is deemed appropriate, the nominator(s) may be asked to
assist the Honorary Degree Committee in completing the justification for
recommendation that is sent to system administration. The president will
review the committee's recommendations prior to submitting nominations to
the chancellor.

The University-wide Committee on Honorary Degrees will review all
nominations submitted to the chancellor and then make a recommendation to
the chancellor and SUNY Board of Trustees, which makes the determination.

Office of the President
