Bill Gates, having had to drop out of Harvard during his junior year to work full-time at Microsoft has never received his Harvard degree. His decision is seen as a good one by many, considering that Microsoft flourished.
Gates will finally receive his well deserved degree from Harvard when he speaks at Harvard's commencement ceremony in June. Every person who speaks at the commencement ceremony will receive a honorary Harvard degree. The Honorary Degrees are given for different subjects, but Harvard doesn't release whom will receive the degree for each subject.
Although, Bill is already quite successful he will finally get the sense of satisfaction and accomplishment. Given that Bill will be stepping-down from his daily duties at Microsoft, this will truly give him a great departure. [Network World]

It's true, The world's greatest billionaire has always been regarded as a Harvard drop-out.But have you have ever found Michael Faraday upsetting for being a school dropout or sir Isaac Newton for not being a physics student.It is hardly found that talents are fond of Institutional degrees wheather Institutions have always looked for talent.All you know that Davy was a professor in Royal Institute wheather Faraday was an apprentice to a book-builder.But everybody will nadmit that Faraday was greater than his master in both of the department of physics and chemistry.It's not about any Institutional degrees ,it's about wheather you know it or not.If you know about it ,you never ever need to get any Institutional or other recognition for it.The whole world knows that the Microsoft office is the place where the smartest people of the world stays in each square ft.The institution which is even more elite than MIT.Who can develop a programming language at the age of 13 except University dropout Bill Gates? There was hardly a corporation named Microsoft or Windows or Internet if there was no dropout named Bill(william Henry) Gates.
