<mods:abstract>This photograph shows Julius Erving and Bob Cousy, who are the 1991 honorary Doctor of Humanics degree recipients. In the photograph, the two men are looking at each other and smiling. A Springfield College flag can be seen on the wall in the background. The photograph was taken on May 19, 1991 at SC's commencement ceremony. Julius Winfield Erving II (born February 22, 1950), commonly known by the nickname Dr. J, is an American retired basketball player. Erving helped legitimize the American Basketball Association (ABA) and was the best-known player in that league when it merged with the National Basketball Association (NBA) after the 1975–76 season. Erving was inducted in 1993 into the Basketball Hall of Fame and was also named to the NBA's 50th Anniversary All-Time team. Erving earned a bachelor's degree from the University of Massachusetts Amherst through the University Without Walls program in creative leadership and administration in 1986. He also holds an honorary doctorate from the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Erving received an honorary degree of Doctor of Humanics from Springfield College and delivered a commencement address at SC's 105th commencement ceremony in 1991. Robert Joseph Cousy is an American retired professional basketball player. Cousy played point guard with the Boston Celtics from 1950 to 1963 and briefly with the Cincinnati Royals in the 1969–70 season. Cousy then became a broadcaster for Celtics games. Upon his election to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 1971 the Celtics retired his #14 jersey and hung it in the rafters of the Garden.</mods:abstract>
