Ryan Levitt, the son of Paul Levitt and Sheryl Levitt. A graduate of Stevenson High School, he received a Bachelor of Science in Education and Business minor.

Graduate and undergraduate degrees are conferred in December based on work completed during the fall semester. Because KU conducts only one formal commencement each year, many students graduating in the fall or summer terms will return on May 19 for the traditional walk down the Hill into Memorial Stadium for the ceremony.
