DURHAM, N.C. – Duke University held its annual university-wide commencement ceremony Sunday at Brooks Field at Wallace Wade Stadium to celebrate its three graduating classes of the academic year: September 2016, December 2016 and May 2017. Duke had 124 student-athletes honored during Sunday's ceremony.
“Graduating after three and half years at Duke is pretty surreal for me,” former women's soccer player Christina Gibbons said. “To see all my hard work pay off and walk away with an incredible degree from such a well-respected academic institution makes me excited for the opportunities it will grant me down the road.
