Milton Resident Graduates from University of Kansas

The names of more than 1,440 candidates for degrees for the fall 2012 semester at the University of Kansas have been announced by the Office of the University Registrar, including Caryn Brooks, of Milton.

She is the daughter of Sharon Brooks, Milton. She is a graduate of Hingham High School. She received a Master of Occupational Therapy.

Graduate and undergraduate degrees are conferred in December based on work completed during the fall semester. Because KU conducts only one formal Commencement each year, many students graduating in the fall or summer terms will return on Sunday, May 19, for the traditional walk down the Hill into Memorial Stadium for the ceremony.

Four of KU's colleges and schools conducted recognition programs or hooding ceremonies in December to honor those planning to graduate in fall 2012: the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, the School of Business, the School of Education and the School of Engineering.
