Former governor of Massachusetts Mitt Romney has announced that he will not run for President of the United States in 2016. What will Mitt do? Will he keep working at Solamere Capital, the investment firm funded by his eldest son, Tagg? Will he write another book? Teach? Romney has received five honorary doctorates. Not from any of his alma maters — Stanford University, Brigham Young University, Harvard University (J.D./M.B.A) — but they still count. They are:
1999 – University of Utah* in business
2002 – Bentley College in law
2004 – Suffolk University Law School in public administration
2007 – Hillsdale College in public service
2012 – Liberty University in humanities
*When Mitt Romney officially decided to make Utah his home in 2014, Romney’s friend Kirk Jowers, director of the University of Utah’s Hinckley Institute of Politics, told The Salt Lake Tribune: “Mitt will always be Utah’s favorite son, and we’d love to have as much of him as we can get.”
