2.2听听 Outstanding alumni of the University and Colleges, whether residing in the state, out of the state, or out of the country.

6.听听 No honorary degree or award shall be approved or conferred for partisan political purposes and the Board shall diligently endeavor to avoid even the appearance of such purpose.

7.听听 Prior to conferring an honorary degree or Granite State Award, each President shall inform the other members of the Administrative Board of his or her intentions. The Chancellor shall maintain an inventory of all recipients of honorary degrees and Granite State Awards, including the date of the degree or award and the conferring institution.
