At the Winona campus commencement ceremony on May 11, U.S. Senator Michael Johanns of Nebraska, a 1971 Saint Mary’s alum, was awarded a Doctor of Laws degree, honoris causa, for his lifetime of work as a public servant. Senator Johanns was cited for more than 30 years of distinguished service to society as mayor of Lincoln, governor of Nebraska, U.S. Secretary of Agriculture, and U.S. Senator. Further, the citation noted that Senator Johanns has "exemplified the characteristics of service and ethical leadership that this university strives to develop in all of its students and, by a life admirably dedicated in service of the common good, has brought honor and credit to his alma mater."
