WILLIAM D. KNIGHT

Upright in character, forceful in personality, and industrious in habit, you have won and held the confidence of your constituency. On basis of your record you have been invited by professional associates to participate with them in an extensive and detailed survey of causes and cures for crime within your state and to compile a portion of the report which treats of this. Solicitous for the ideals of good government and eager for the public welfare, you have courageously conducted the affairs of your important office and established yourself as an intellectual guardian of the principle of liberty under law. In recognition of the representation you give to the College, I confer upon you the honorary degree of Master of Arts.
