MADISON, Wis. Another class of UW-Madison students will graduate virtually on Sunday, with commencement ceremonies being held online for the second time since the pandemic began.
Yet the virtual format isn’t the only unique thing about this round of graduation. Sven Kleinhans will make history by being the first student athlete to be the commencement speaker.
“Being from Germany, it’s usually not that big of a deal so looking at it from a more cultural perspective, where I come from, where I grew up, it is an honor but it’s not that big of a deal but people here have been telling me that I can be pretty proud,” said Kleinhans.
