Sharonda Wilson decided to skip her own college graduation at Ferris State University so she could see her son graduate at the same time at CMU.

After Central president Robert Davies learned about the situation, he contacted Ferris president David Eisler.

At the CMU ceremony, Davies conferred the mom's degree on behalf of FSU's president and trustees.

In a video shared by the university, the crowd can be heard cheering the mother on.
