Universities turn to online convocations, announce honorary degrees

In addition to the more than 3,800 degrees, diplomas and certificates, the University of Victoria is conferring honorary degrees to seven community members, recognizing achievements in health care, art, science, law and business. Nominees, who received the awards Tuesday and Wednesday, were chosen for accomplishments that extend beyond their respective fields. Among the recipients was Marvin Storrow, QC, who received an honorary Doctor of Laws degree. Born in Vancouver in 1934, Storrow attended the University of British Columbia and was called to the bar in 1963. During his long career, he litigated both civil and criminal cases, including 20 in the Supreme Court of Canada. While his expertise covers a number of areas, he is known for his success in Indigenous law, including several groundbreaking verdicts in constitutional rights and land titles in the 1970s and 1980s.
