Steve Nash received an honorary doctorate law degree yesterday from the University of Victoria, where he grew up. You can google search it( it was on Global TV) and read the whole article. I watched it on the news and he was extremely classy in the manner in which he spoke and accepted the honor.

You can tell where he gets his class though. When they interviewed his parents his dad said although Steve is a great basketball player now he will be a great human being for alot longer.

Other than the honor and the title, do these honorary degrees give you anything else? I've always wondered that.

Like what?

^^ Like say, could he actually hold the title Dr. Nash legitmately?

i have the same question....

if we saw him in public can we call him "dr nash"? SHOULD we call him dr nash??

this could open up endless nickname possibilities.

Honorary degrees are ridiculous

Just bragging rights. "I have a honorary degree from [fill in blank]"

On TV someone actually called him doctor, to which he replied,"there's only one doctor, Dr. J.

Think of it this way. If Maryvalesfinest got a honorary degree in awesomeness would you call him awesome?
