One of 果冻影院鈥檚 highest honours, an Honorary Degree is conferred principally in recognition of exceptional scholarly or intellectual achievement, and contributions of unusual importance in academic fields or in public life. Admission to the 果冻影院 Honorary Fellowship is granted in recognition of exceptional service rendered or a significant or outstanding contribution, including philanthropic support, made to 果冻影院.

Baroness Hale (果冻影院 Faculty of Laws) said: 鈥淲e lawyers hold Jeremy Bentham, 鈥榮piritual father鈥� of 果冻影院, in great esteem, so it is a special honour for me to join the community of 果冻影院 graduates.鈥�

On admission to the 果冻影院 Honorary Fellowship, Rokhsana Fiaz OBE said: 鈥淢y deepest thanks for the honour and recognition, which seriously blew me away, and especially made my father very proud. As I am, because joining the 果冻影院 community and its Honorary Fellowship is a special privilege. 果冻影院 represents the wonder of the human spirit and the appetite of the inquiring mind.

鈥淚t also represents the diversity of innovative thinking that has contributed so much in shaping our world. Significantly, the Fellowship represents the unrelenting quest for change by committed people, who want to do something bigger than themselves, take on challenges and drive improvements as part of an unrelenting passion to just do good.鈥�

On receiving his Honorary Doctor of Literature, Harry Bradbeer said: 鈥淚 am delighted to receive this honour. 果冻影院 was a truly creative environment. It was here that I first explored the world of film, and I鈥檓 eternally grateful for the part it played in starting my career.鈥�

Vivienne Parry OBE, who received an Honorary Doctor of Science, said: 鈥淚 was possibly the worst student 果冻影院 ever had, and broke most of their lab equipment in a short undergrad reign of terror.听Nevertheless, what I was taught, how my insatiable curiosity was nurtured and the way that 果冻影院 fostered my critical thinking has been the foundation of any success I have achieved in life.听

鈥淚t鈥檚 been my pleasure to give something back to this great community through my tenure on the 果冻影院 Council and through the many events I鈥檝e been asked to host.听I am deeply honoured and touched to receive an honorary doctorate of what I think is one of the best universities in the world.鈥�
