My wife is extremely proud to have graduated from our state university.(not UVA) She doesn't bring it up as our jobs don't require degrees but she's the first in her family to get a real college degree. They celebrated her so graduation so much. It was a huge deal for her family. Her mom and grandmother love to mention she has a degree from UGA. To the rural community she's from, its a big deal.
