Danielle Rae Hipsky Graduates From College

Dick and Phyllis spent a week in Wisconsin to celebrate Mothers Day, Lynsley's birthday and then had the privilege of attending Dani Rae's college graduation.  Dani Rae graduated from the University of Wisconsin - Madison on  May 17, 2014.

She graduated with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Biology, and a Minor in Global Health.

The school's mascot is the Badger - kissing his nose is suppose to bring you good luck.

All the graduates decorated their caps.  Dani Rae used the symbol for DNA.

 Of course the parents, brothers and grandparents were quite proud of Dani Rae as she worked very hard the past four years for this degree.

All the "students" would set on "Lincoln's" lap and rub his nose - this was another good luck practice.

Dani Rae plans to stay in Madison, to continue her education in the medical field. 

 

There were over 7,000 graduating students at the Camp Randall Stadium.  This picture only shows about half of the students. Although we were prepared for cool weather, we did appreciate the bright sunny day for this ceremony. What a great day.
