Former Gov. Jeb Bush may have been denied a University of Florida honorary degree, but he has been given alumni status.

The University of Florida Alumni Association’s Board of Directors passed the resolution Saturday naming the former governor an honorary alumnus.

The move comes after the school’s Faculty Senate voted 38-28 Thursday to deny Bush an honorary degree.
