  • By Wbro Major Charles William Shand, OBE, BEM Past Provincial Senior
    The Greenall family and its service to Freemasonry By WBro Major Charles William Shand, OBE, BEM Past Provincial Senior Grand Warden and WBro Derek Hunt Past Assistant Grand Director of Ceremonies Some of us here tonight had the honour of knowing WBro Major Charles William Shand, OBE, BEM, a perfect gentleman and an outstanding Freemason. When Charles died I assisted in sorting out some of his Masonic memorabilia and one of the items I found concerned the involvement of the Greenall family with Freemasonry in Warrington. I have worked on Charles’s original script, added to it and updated it for tonight’s presentation. If any one local family can claim to have had the biggest influence on Freemasonry in Warrington, the Province of West Lancashire, the United Grand Lodge of England and even stretching its involvement to Ireland, there can be no argument that it is the Greenall family. Two members of the family became Senior Grand Wardens of England and one became a Provincial Grand Master in Ireland. However, before going into the history of the Greenall family and Warrington Freemasonry, it is necessary to give a wider picture on Freemasonry in the town in general. It was in Warrington on 16 October 1646 that Elias Ashmole and Colonel Henry Mainwaring were made Masons, as recorded in Ashmole’s diary. No other meeting of that lodge are recorded. We have to move forward more than 100 years and to the Cock Inn, Bridge Street, when on 21 August 1755 a lodge was constituted as Number 40 on the register of the Antient, or Athol Grand Lodge, but it ceased to function and lapsed in December of 1756.

  • Guidelines for the Awarding of Honorary Degrees
    Guidelines for the Awarding of Honorary Degrees Preamble By awarding honorary degrees, the University recognizes those individuals whose accomplishments are of such excellence that they provide inspiration and leadership to its graduates. As well, through its choice of honorary degree recipients, the University makes a public declaration of its values. In selecting candidates, the University should attempt to choose individuals of such a calibre that in honouring them, it too is honoured. The Honorary Degrees and Convocations Committee should attempt, through its recommendations of nominees, to reflect the cultural diversity of the country and the international character and diversity of the University itself. It should also attempt to honour those whose outstanding contributions to their fields or to society have not yet been widely recognized. I. General Policies 1. Eligibility and Exclusions Canadians and non-Canadians may be considered for honorary degrees. Generally speaking, active or newly retired members of staff, voting members of the Board of Governors, and Canadian politicians currently in office should not be considered for honorary degrees. Normally, honorary degrees are not awarded posthumously or in absentia. 2. Criteria Some of the factors to be considered by the Committee in its deliberations are: (a) Accomplishments of Note These accomplishments could include scholarly distinction and outstanding contributions to the creative or performing arts. (b) Service to the Community at Large or to a Profession or Discipline This service could include outstanding achievements in the area of public service at the national or international levels, at the local or community level, or to a profession or discipline. (c) Appropriateness to a Special Anniversary This could include the centenary of a school or faculty or a like event.

Nominations for the award of honorary degrees will be considered by the Honorary Conferments Committee (HCC), which is chaired by the Vice-Chancellor. The HCC is granted delegated authority, from the Academic Board and the Board of Governors, to approve nominations. The HCC will prepare an annual report of approved nominations for receipt by the Academic Board and the Board of Governors. 4.

  • Honorary Degree Guidelines
    SOUTH DAKOTA STATE UNIVERSITY GRANTING OF HONORARY DEGREES Approved by Faculty Senate on November 27, 2018 Purpose of Honorary Degree: The honorary degree is the highest honor conferred by the Board of Regents and University and is reserved for only those candidates whose extraordinary accomplishments have benefitted society. The purpose of conferring the honorary degree is to pay tribute to worthy individuals and the degree is not equivalent to, nor a replacement for, an earned bachelor or doctorate degree. Board of Regent’s policy 2:18 sets forth system policy for the awarding of the honorary doctorate degree and can be found at https://www.sdbor.edu/policy/documents/2-18.pdf. Honorary doctorate degrees may be conferred as following: Doctor of Humane Letters Doctor of Letters and Literature Doctor of Public Service Doctor of Science This policy further establishes a process at South Dakota State University for consideration of nominations for honorary degrees. Guidelines for Selection: Substantial evidence must be presented that extraordinary achievement has been accomplished. Substantial evidence should include a significant degree of creativity, resourcefulness, humanitarian concern, personal dedication, intellect, and other qualities consistent with the intent of an honorary degree. Therefore, careful distinction must be made between the extraordinary effort of talented, selfless, and energetic individuals who have performed beyond the call of duty in service to humankind, in contrast to normal expectations in fulfilling service, employment, or professional requirement (including longevity). Consideration will be given to biographical information which may include, in addition to personal data, itemization of civic and social service awards unrelated to the proposed honorary degree, political or business achievements not associated with the primary reason for the nomination.
