Call him Dr. Sir McCartney! Or rather, Paul McCartney, D.Mus., M.B.E.? Actually just stick to Mr. McCartney.

Yale announced that it has awarded Paul McCartney with an Honorary--we assume honorary means he didn't actually have to schlep out to New Haven to attend classes--Doctor of Music degree, an academic degree of the highest level also awarded to Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, and John Mellencamp.
