The mystery of the "Honorary Doctorate" web.mit.edu CAMBRIDGE, Mass. -- Honorary degrees are a routine part of graduation ceremonies at nearly every college in the land -- but not at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. MIT's founder, William Barton Rogers, regarded the practice of giving honorary degrees as "literary almsgiving ... of spurious merit and noisy popularity." Since MIT held its first graduation ceremony in May, 1868, every MIT degree has been earned by academic labor. It is an MIT tradition of meritocracy that traces its origin back to Rogers and to Thomas Jefferson, the founder of the University of Virginia... ------------------- siliconinvestor.com John Bordynuik Brock Physics BSc until the legislature hired me during my second year. I then continued studies in Toronto, some partially paid by the legislature (tuition reimbursement). Later they paid me to go to a private university for CPU architecture and system internals. Finally in 2004, My magnetic media research was structured to lead to an honorary doctorate. I did solve a near impossible problem (MIT tried with PhD candidates) as many large companies and institutions attempted to solve the problem. In all, my schooling (physics) does not apply to what I do now but I have witnessed many highly successful scientists solve near impossible problems outside their field because they are not bound by the barriers and assumptions of scientists in the field. Firefly Battery is an excellent example of this. I have talent to apply research and technology in completely unrelated fields to solve problems. That is a key factor in our success.

Thus his honrary degree from MIT and his joining the CSAIL group by invitation from MIT. Many of the most brilliant are self-taught and absorb more textbooks & information on more subjects than the less intelligent ever attempt to study... and for many of them a traditional degree is never acquired because sitting thru the required classes with ordunary folks bores them to tears... .............. =============== And who is writing and submitting these glowing versions of JBI?
