The University of the West Indies last Friday conferred an Honourary Degree of Doctor of Laws to double Olympic World Record holder, Usain Bolt.

This latest honour adds to the Ambassador-at-Large and the Order of Jamaica Awards bestowed on Bolt by the government of Jamaica.

Having received the Honourary Doctors of Laws, Usain will now be referred to as Dr The Honourable Ambassador Usain St Leo Bolt OJ.

Bolt was awarded mainly for his 2008 and 2009 exploits on the track where he ran 9.69 seconds for the 100m and 19.30 seconds for the 200m. At the World Championships the following year, he ran 9.58 seconds for the 100m and 19.19 seconds in the 200m.
