Aramark CEO Joseph Neubauer Awarded Honorary Degree At University Of Delaware
 Joseph Neubauer, chairperson and chief executive officer of ARAMARK--the world's leading provider of managed food and food service, uniform and career apparel and child care and early education programs--was awarded an honorary doctor of science degree during a special dinner and ceremony, Sunday, April 30, at the University of Delaware.
The honorary doctorate is the highest degree the University bestows. Recent recipients include artist Jamie Wyeth, documentary film director Ken Burns and the president of Ireland, Mary McAleese.
UD President David P. Roselle opened the ceremony calling Neubauer “an industry icon and friend of the University of Delaware.”
Roselle said Neubauer is a recipient of the Horatio Alger Award honoring the achievements of outstanding individuals in our society who have succeeded in spite of adversity and encouraged young people to pursue their dreams through higher education.
“Mr. Neubauer is the embodiment of that award, and we are indeed honored by his presence this evening. We are also indebted to the support of Joe Neubauer and the ARAMARK Corp. and, in fact, we celebrate this year our 15th anniversary of the partnership of ARAMARK and the University of Delaware,” Roselle said.
