COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) -- Thousands of people filled Ohio Stadium on Sunday afternoon for spring commencement. Many were joined by loved ones to celebrate the milestone but for one graduate, her father was there to cheer her on and receive a diploma of his own.
“The bachelor’s degree is four years and then the Ph.D. program is three years, so I started a year before," Ohio State University graduate Lindsay Logue said. "It was kind of, like, 'Oh, we could do it. We could do it.' It’s always kind of been a dream since then."
Logue graduated with her Bachelor of Science after studying Environment, Economy, Development, and Sustainability, and she got to share the stage with her father, Rick Logue, who went back to school to get his Doctorate of Education.
NBC4 met the two of them ahead of the big day, something they said they’ve been looking forward to since they first realized they could graduate together.
“I’ve been telling everybody and they’re like this is the neatest thing I wish I could do that with my child,” Rick Logue said.
The Logues are from Columbus, so it is even more special for them to graduate together as Buckeyes.
“It’s very surreal that I started this program kind of by myself and then we get to finish together. Not many people get to do that so the fact that I get to do that with my dad is just so awesome,” Lindsay Logue said.
COSI’s Big Science Celebration festival comes to a closeFrom going to football games together to catching each other for a few minutes on campus, Rick Logue said this experience has only strengthened his bond with his daughter.
“It’s been a lot of fun because as she is gone from home, I could actually go out with her occasionally and get lunch or dinner with her. It kind of helped us stay connected,” he said.
It’s safe to say she had no problem with sharing the spotlight.
“I have been telling all of my classmates for probably the past, like, month or so. I’m like, 'Oh, my dad is going to be there! My dad’s going to be there!'” Lindsay Logue said.
