Richard M. Nixon, Vice President of the U.S . LL.D.

Citation: "When a distinguished and very sincere President of the United States was being betrayed by men in whom he had the utmost confidence, you were warned that the conscientious pursuance of your congressional committee duties would, whether you were right or wrong, invoke unending opposition of powerful political and academic forces. Almost alone, you went ahead. Under another great President you chose to serve though you knew that under one so colorful and popular, the Vice Presidency would mean an oblivion deeper than the shades of night . . . You have put into that office a maximum and mighty service of legislative accomplishment, of reconciliation of diverse forces . . . and promotion of international understanding and good will."
