COOLIDGE MAY GET DEGREE HERE NEXT COMMENCEMENT
President Coolidge may be the recipient of an honorary degree from Harvard next June according to a rumor announced in an evening paper last night under a Washington date line.
No corroboration or denial of this report, can be obtained from the University authorities, for it has become a time-honored custom that no degree is announced before it is awarded.
The President is planning to attend commencement at both Harvard and Holy Cross, and friends of Mr. Coolidge believe that this can hardly be interpreted as arising from any other cause than an offer of an honorary degree.
The last President honored while in office with a Harvard degree was Theodore Roosevelt, who was given an LL.D. degree in 1902.
