Bronco on the Green

NFL star Russell Wilson delivers Commencement address.

The Super Bowl winner was a surprise selection to speak at the June 12 ceremony, which was scheduled to return to the Green this year. The Denver Broncos quarterback never tossed a pigskin for the Big Green, but his father, the late Harrison Wilson III ’77, played football and baseball at the College, and his three uncles (Benjamin ’73, John ’80, and Richard ’85) also knew their way around campus. Commencement featured eight honorary degree recipients, including three alumni: business executive Charles Haldeman ’70, diplomat Kul Chandra Gautam ’72, and physics professor Fiona Harrison ’85.
