He received an honorary doctor of science degree from Memorial University of Newfoundland in 2004
Early life
Davis was son of Mildred and Guy Earle, born November 26, 1937, and raised in Carbonear, Newfoundland. His father was the final captain of the SS Kyle and part-owner of the Earle Freighting Service. Davis said “My father tried to get me to join him in the codfish business in Carbonear, but I didn’t want to go work with my father at 20. I thought I needed to see a bit of Canada,” a goal that stuck with him throughout his life. Davis got his bachelor's of science degree at Memorial University, a master's degree at the University of British Columbia. In 1959 he became a Rhodes Scholar and completed his doctorate studies at Oxford in 1964.
