Gospel singer Carlene Davis and actress Sheryl Lee Ralph will be conferred with honorary Doctor of Letters by the University of Technology (UTECH) during its upcoming graduation.
Carlene Davis, known for tracks like This island needs Jesus and Stand up for Jesus, is being recognized for her contribution to music, ministry and humanitarian outreach, while Emmy award winning actress Sheryl Lee Ralph is being honoured for her global influence as a cultural ambassador for Jamaica, her ground-breaking achievements in the international film industry and her unwavering commitment to humanitarian advocacy.
UTECH’s graduation ceremonies for 2025 were initially scheduled for November 8 and 9 but were postponed due to the widespread devastation caused by Hurricane Melissa. The celebrations will now take place on January 31 and February 1 at the Alfred Sangster auditorium at their main campus in Papine.
