May 4, 2013, at Commencement Exercises, Mid-America Christian University helped a family surprise graduate Kacy D. Watson by having her brother Staff Sergeant Michael Burkhart present her diploma to her! Staff Sergeant Burkhart received special permission from his commanding officer at Camp Pendleton, CA, to fly into Oklahoma City the night before graduation and the university worked with his mother to keep the event a surprise to the whole family. Kacy Watson hadn't seen her brother for a year prior to commencement, and Staff Sergeant Burkhart will deploy in the next week for a year on the Korean Peninsula.
