For her 40 years of dedicated service to College of the Ozarks, Dean of the College Dr. Marilyn C. Graves received an honorary Doctor of Laws at the 104th Commencement, held May 8.
It is customary and proper for institutions of higher education to confer honorary degrees to recognize outstanding achievement, public service and leadership.
