Alexsandr Solzhenitsyn was a surprise honorary degree recipient in 1984. Father K once described his role in the secret op to get him to campus in a post here on Crossports.

Dr. Fauci was the surprise speaker.
The college is planning to give the class a 'real' commencement next Spring.

That virtual graduation with a special gift for each graduate was well done. Dr Fauci did himself and the college proud with his comments to the Class of 2020. I think I enjoyed this one more than my own (in 1967). Congratulations Class of 2020! GO CROSS GO!

For people who like brief graduations, this was one. Dr. Fauci delivered a fine talk adhering to one of the principles he learned at HC.- economy of expression.

Very well produced!
We welcome the Class of 2020 to our Alumni Association.
Seems like yesterday we met them at the Summer Alumni Pizza Party.

Agreed -- when watching the full graduation video, I realized that the twitter excerpt that I posted contained only part of his remarks.

Fauci appeared on CNBC just before appearing virtually at HC. He didn't get up from his chair. Link on the remdesivir / vaccine thread in the general forum.

But he probably left out the part about the Jesuit influence of HC
