Loading Lisa Wilkinson data from Instagram. Please wait... @lisa_wilkinson : Well, that was one I never could have imagined...completely blown away and humbled today to receive an Honorary Doctorate Of Letters from The University Of Wollongong, just a few kilometres from the hospital where I was born, and my grandparents’ house where I spent so many of my school holidays growing up.
My beautiful grandfather, William Charles Wilkinson, who, 101 years ago tonight fought in the bloody WW1 Anzac Day battle of Villers Bretonneux in France, would have been so incredibly proud. As am I.
And huge congrats to all the wonderful graduating students I met and addressed today.
It was an absolute honour.👩🎓
