There's a few different reasons and it can be one or more of them depending on the person receiving the honour.
It can be a way to acknowledge expertise in a field that has been obtained via experience rather than in academia. That's why you get a lot in Law, Business, The Arts and Journalism.
A lot of universities have stringent qualification requirements for lecturing Usually a doctorate, post-doc plus a teaching qualification. It can allow the people awarded the ability to take up short term lecturing positions (sometimes only for a year or even a single term) at universities.
It can be a way for universities to raise their public profile to secure funding. That's why you'll see less well known universities dishing out honourary degrees more than top rated ones.

KMC has really become a petty and childish forum. Used to be some pretty good debates and interesting ideas. Now it appears to be quite a few mental midgets running the asylum.
If you act like an ass to everyone who disagrees with you, then you are an ass.
If you can’t read and understand what someone is trying to say because you choose to focus on irrelevant points that you some see as a “gotcha” moment, you’ll never be more than a uninformed Chump.
If you all you are here for us to prop up your fragile ego by posting the lamest of quips, Jeep leading that fulfilling life.
Now feel free to flame me, if that’s all you got, I’m happy to oblige.
That being said, the glory days of this forum are long gone.

Agreed, the far-lefties on this board should calm down.

I don't know why some of you are going on about being right and winning. Rob and Impediment were in on this gag because I PMed them. Silent and Rao PMed me and figured I changed the post. I highly doubt anybody thought Quan made the post, but simply played along just for the lulz.
Like can you explain what you wanted to debate here? Specifically.

It comes off like a bad faith thread to be honest.
Something to feed the leftists here and an attempt to bait the more conservative posters. I will admit that isn't on you, it's the atmosphere of this forum.
Is she a half wit? No probably not. Most of these folk just feign ignorance. We see it on this forum all the time from Rob and company.

Like calling out anti lockdown protests but staying silent or even joining anti police protests. Sadly Tucker is not unique.
