Phil Geier Awarded Honorary Degree by St. Olaf College

St. Olaf College writes that Honors Day is “a time to celebrate the academic accomplishments of students, to express gratitude to faculty members, and to say “thank you” to donors and friends of the college who provide scholarships.”

As part of this year’s Honors Day, St. Olaf also awarded our co-founder and Executive Director Phil Geier an honorary degree in recognition of his work with the Davis UWC Scholars Program.
