Cook-Searson receives honourary degree from Sask. Polytechnic
Lac La Ronge Indian Band (LLRIB) Chief Tammy Cook-Searson was the recipient of an honourary degree in Applied Studies by Saskatchewan Polytechnic last week.
“It was really nice when I received the call from Sask. Polytechnic letting me know I was nominated to receive the honourary degree,” she said.
“I was really honoured to be chosen and I am really honoured to be the honourary recipient this year. I was really honoured to share the stage with 540 graduates in Prince Albert. It was a really nice ceremony.”
Honourary degree recipients often model the institution’s vision and values, and Sask. Polytech notes that the contributions made by the members of this influential group help cultivate an educational environment focused on applied learning and innovative research to empower a better Saskatchewan, and inspire success in every learning journey.
