A feature story chronicles the road to commencement for Wayne State University students Sherry Kahari and Darcia Miller. The mother and daughter duo earned degrees in Social Work – Kahari received her master’s and Miller a bachelor’s. Kahari hopes to work in a hospital. Miller would like to land at a nonprofit, working with victims of domestic violence and sexual assault. "I'm excited," Miller said. "I think I'm more excited for her than for me. She's done a great job of giving me advice in life and helping me out. She's been through so much. It's going to be a very exciting moment." A photo gallery of Kahari and Miller is included.
