Yesterday was a big day for more than 1 700 students who successfully completed bachelor’s, master’s, postgraduate, and diploma programmes at the University of the West Indies. They shared the spotlight with five outstanding Caribbean citizens.
The five were conferred with honorary doctor of law degrees during graduation ceremonies at the Wildey Gymnasium of the Garfield Sobers Sports Complex.
They were former politician Sir Henry Forde, QC, retired Anglican Bishop of the Diocese of Barbados Rufus Brome, former St Lucian diplomat and cricket administrator Julian Hunte, former governor of the Barbados Central Bank-turned diplomat Dr Marion Williams and retired Cave Hill principal Sir Keith Hunte.
