Country music icon Emmylou Harris accepted an honorary doctorate from Boston's Berklee College of Music at the ninth Annual Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival, in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park on Sunday. Longtime Harris friend Linda Ronstadt and bluegrass pioneer Earl Scruggs were on hand for the presentation, made just before Harris's set on the festival's Banjo Stage. Ronstadt and Scruggs are past Berklee honorary doctorate recipients.
