Vanessa Williams has made her kids proud by receiving her diploma in musical theater studies from Syracuse University.

The Ugly Betty star left the college in 1983 to fulfill her Miss America duties, and returned to take part in last Saturday’s commencement ceremony. Her 15-year-old Devin and 18-year-old Jillian were there to see their mom’s proud moment.

While Vanessa didn’t complete the course, she was given extra credit for her work in the entertainment industry. There’s nothing like a little on the job training right?

“She loves Syracuse so much, so I’m just happy to see her finally graduate,” Jillian told Capital News 9.

“I was just really proud of my mom and its great to see her up there in a cap and gown,” added Devin.

Congratulations Vanessa!
