Diane L. Ford of Green Bay was presented the Chancellor’s Award, UW-Green Bay’s highest community honor, during May 2011 commencement ceremonies at the Kress Events Center. She received the honor from Provost Julia Wallace and Chancellor Thomas Harden.
Dr. Tina Sauerhammer, M.D., was just 14 years of age when she started at UW-Green Bay, 18 when she finished, and 22 when she graduated med school en route to becoming one of the youngest physicians in the country. Sauerhammer joked several times about her youth as she returned to deliver the commencement address at her alma mater on May 14.
Kayla Tetschlag said she was 6 years old when she decided she might want to attend UW-Green Bay. Tetschlag delivered the student commencement address. In her brief remarks she focused on how the little things in life can often lead to big things, or bring deep satisfaction.
One of the more interesting stories at May 2011 commencement at UW-Green Bay belonged to Peter J. Hauserman. Hauserman received his bachelor’s degree in interdisciplinary studies through the Adult Degree program, completing a mix of online and in-person classes. He’s proud of the accomplishment, too.
