Father/daughter duo set to graduate together Friday

December 13, 2018

Julie Rinehart will receive her bachelor's degree from the UofL College of Education and Human Development on Friday.

So will her 54-year-old father, Darren Rinehart. 

"Graduating with my dad, that's just the cherry on top of the sundae," Julie said. 

Julie's time on campus included a role with the UofL Marching Band. Once Darren enrolled in classes, he also joined the band. 

"We got questioned by quite a few people, but I think we both knew it was really awesome -- too great of an opportunity to miss out on," Julie said.
