can you be called doctor with an honorary degree
It is sometimes recommended that such degrees be listed in one's CV as an award, and not in the education section. With regard to the use of this honorific, the policies of institutions of higher education generally ask that recipients ``refrain from adopting the misleading title'' and that a recipient of an honorary doctorate should restrict the use of the title ``Dr'' before their name to any engagement with the institution of higher education in question and not within the broader community. Rev. Theodore Hesburgh held the record for most honorary degrees, having been awarded 150 during his lifetime.
