Uh.... Think about it, there is one graduation every year, which means there is one magna cum laude every year (if indeed there is only one) Harvard has been arouond for almost 300 years. Do the math. People should not answer questions when they know nothing about the subject. There are three Latin degrees indicating outstanding achievement: cum laude (with distinction), magna cum laude (with high distinction), and summa cum laude (with the highest distinction). At Harvard School of Law, only 10% of each graduating class graduates magna cum laude, and only one student graduates summa cum laude.
