JSK piled up doctorates

Another item from the July, 1969 issue of Tower Topics

2 MORE DEGREES
GIVE JSK SIX


Editor John S, Knight received two honorary doctor of laws degrees this year -- from tile University of Michigan and Oberlin College.

This makes six doctor of laws degrees he's received since 1945, when Akron U awarded the first. Others have come from Northwestern (1947), Kent State (1958) and Ohio State (1961).

In each instance, JSK was cited fur his achievements in journalism, which, if listed, would take up all the space allotted to Tower Topics.
