CAMBRIDGE, Massachusetts (AP)--Bill Gates is finally getting his Harvard degree--32 years after he walked away from the university on the path to becoming the world's wealthiest person.

Gates, billionaire co--founder of Microsoft Corp.,philanthropist(慈善家) and college dropout, will receive an honorary degree June 7 when he delivers Harvard University' s 356th graduation address.

"His contributions to the world of business and technology, and the great example he has set through his far--reaching philanthropy, will rightfully put him on center stage in Harvard Yard," Harvard Alumni Association President Paul Finnegan said in a statement.

Gates is considered a member of Harvard' s Class of 1977, which celebrates its 30th reunion this year. He first came to the university in 1973 but left in1975 to devote his time to developing Microsoft, which he founded that year with childhood friend Paul Allen.

Gates helped turn Redmond, Wash--based Microsoft into the world's largest maker of computer software, with revenues of more than $ 44 billion during the year 2006. He was the company's chief executive(首席执行官)until 2000 and still serves as chairman.

Gates and his wife, Melinda, created the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation in 2000,which is now the world's largest philanthropic foundation with an endowment(捐赠资金) of about $ 33 billion. The foundation concentrates on promoting global health, ending poverty and hunger, and enhancing education. The Gates Foundation also is a major donor to Harvard.

Jack Reardon, Harvard's associate vice president for university relations, said there was no particular reason why the university waited until this year to honor Gates. He said Harvard considers many people for honorary degrees every year.

Forbes magazine earlier this year estimated Gates' worth at $ 56 billion, making him the world's richest person.

"We are finding that,similar to people,they like touching the tablet,watching short videos of David Attenborough for instance,and looking at other animals and orangutans," said Richard Zimmerman,founding director of Orangutan Outreach,the non-profit that runs the program.
Twice weekly,orangutans are provided with access to the tablets.The animals spend from 15 minutes to half an hour using different Apps depending on their attention span.Apps designed for children that stimulate activities such as painting,music and memory games are among the most popular Apps with the apes.
"It is a lot like when we're showing children pop-up books,"said Zimmerman,adding that the orangutans are among the most intelligent primates,with the intelligence level of a young child.
The program,which relies on donated iPads, will soon be expanding to zoos across Australia, New Zealand, Japan and Europe.
