Oops! TCU commencement program misspells ‘univeristy’

More than 1,800 degrees were expected to be awarded to TCU students during three ceremonies on Saturday, a day that will long be remembered by the graduates and their families.

For some, the memory might include a chuckle.

On the first page of the program for the ceremonies, Texas Christian University was misspelled Univeristy.

The Star-Telegram certainly understands how typographical errors happen — we stumble upon them daily in stories that are published online and in print.

As for the TCU typo, a school spokeswoman said, “We will investigate on Monday to determine how that happened.”

Meanwhile, here’s a breakdown of TCU’s spring commencement, by the numbers:

1,508 graduates with bachelor’s degrees (including 37 double degrees);

665 graduates with Latin Honors (including 15 with 4.0 GPAs);

316 graduates with master’s degrees (including 24 who are Ph.D. candidates);

1,111 graduates from Texas;

666 graduates from 45 other states;

93 graduates from 33 different countries;

23 graduates of Brite Divinity School;

1 misspelled word on program.
