Edward Douglass White, Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court.

Following his service in the War, White went on to a very successful career as a lawyer, politician, and, later, a U.S. Supreme Court Justice. The culmination of his career would be his appointment as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court in 1910. In 1892, Georgetown honored White with an honorary degree.
