<p>To my view, this invitation is simply honoring the Position that she holds - Secretary of State of the U.S. Why should it matter what her personal views are or what her political affiliation is?</p>
<p>BC should only invite Democratic Secretaries of State to receive honorary degrees?! That seems a little ridiculous. You invite the person holding that position because you honor the fact that it is an amazing accomplishment to rise to the job of Sec. of State. The invitation to speak and the degree are not a “seal of approval” for the work she is doing in that position.</p>
