From life's hardest moments to a proud walk across the stage

(BPT) - On Sunday, June 7, more than 2,000 graduates crossed the stage at the Rosemont Theater in Rosemont, Illinois. The celebration marked a milestone that represents far more than knowledge, it stands as powerful proof that resilience and sacrifice are at the heart of every achievement.

"Every one of our graduates has a unique story," said Elise Awwad, president and CEO of DeVry University. "But one thing they have in common is their dedication to their education and doing whatever it takes to make it a reality."
