✨Part 1✨ When the William Woods University Ex ✨Part 1✨

When the William Woods University Executive Cabinet heard that 2023 graduate, Sara Schaefer, had to miss commencement they brought a surprise commencement to her! 

Sara’s 8-year-old son, Ezra, is fighting Rhabdomyosarcoma which kept Sara from attending her commencement in April as she planned. 

When Sara came to campus to take photos in her cap and gown with family, she didn’t know President Jeremy Moreland, Provost Aimee Sapp, Chief Student Experience Officer Ted Blashak, and Chief Advancement Officer Tony Andenoro would be there to confer her degree and have her read the alumni oath. 

Sara wore her Beads of Courage with her regalia. Each bead represents a different treatment or challenge Ezra and Sara have faced through his fight. We were honored to place Sara’s ivy next to these beads and be a small part of her family’s journey. Thank you to the @supersamfoundation for helping The Woods team pull off this epic surprise!

Sara graduated with her Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a minor in American Sign Language and is officially a William Woods alumna! We look forward to seeing more of the Schaefer family as WWU welcomes Sara’s daughter, Breanna, to campus as a student this fall!
