Franklin University celebrated a first.
Last weekend, Phil Fankhauser — a Franklin alum from the class of 1968 — handed diplomas to the inaugural graduates of the M.S. in Professional Sales Leadership. A program he helped make possible.
Swipe to meet the first four graduates of the program he helped build. 🎓
1,227 graduates. 47 states. 26 countries.
Franklin University's 182nd Commencement Ceremony brought together the Class of Spring 2026 — and graduate Jamie W. captured the spirit of what it took to get there.
"Somewhere along the way, we became people willing to keep learning, willing to grow, willing to step forward even when we didn't have all the answers."
Congratulations to every graduate and the families who cheered them on. 🎓
Four of this Spring's graduates. Three questions before they crossed the stage.
One of them: what almost stopped you from enrolling? They questioned whether the timing was right—whether they had enough time, whether they could balance it all, or whether going back to school made sense at this stage of life.
They enrolled anyway. 🎓
