Gates to get Harvard degree
InfoWorld | at | by Mike
It's not like he needs it to beef up his resume, but the world's richest college dropout is finally getting his degree.
Bill Gates, chairman of Microsoft, will speak at Harvard University's commencement ceremony in June and like all commencement speakers will receive an honorary degree from the institution.
It's hard to guess if Gates, the wealthiest person in the world and co-founder of a company that brought in US$44 billion in revenue last year, cares. But the programming whiz who once dropped out of Harvard will likely feel some sense of satisfaction.
