The Family That Graduates Together…

Well, this is pretty great: On Saturday, when Ira Lerner picks up the bachelor’s degree he earned at Penn State Lehigh Valley through the University’s OLEAD adult learner’s program, he’ll share the stage with his son, Edward. Both father and son are graduating this weekend, and Edward, a physics major at University Park, decided to walk at Lehigh Valley so he and his dad can share the moment. Aside from simplifying the family’s weekend plans — Ira and Edward would have had to miss each other’s commencement ceremonies on Saturday — this figures to be a moment folks in the Lerner household remember for a long time.
