Alec Brown puts human exclamation point on Chancellor’s last graduation

There’s an interesting story regarding how Alec Brown of Winona, Minn., a Business Administration graduate and a 7-1 pro basketball prospect, happened to have the distinction of being last in line and on the receiving end of what Tom Harden says was the final diploma presentation and congratulatory handshake of his career as a university chancellor. (Harden is stepping down this summer after five years as UW-Green Bay chancellor.) It’s no tall tale, but neither was it a slam dunk for Brown to arrive for the ceremony in time.
