that Elin Nordegren graduated from Rollins College with a bachelor’s degree in psychology, a grade-point average of 3.96 and an award that calls “the evening degree program’s equivalent to being named a valedictorian.”
She gave a speech at commencement, too:
She mainly spoke of her experiences at Rollins, but mentioned her marriage briefly.
“When I entered my student advisor office in the fall of 2005, I was 25 years old and had just recently moved to America,” she says at about 5:20. “I was married without children.
