Earl Tucker, a proud graduate of 91���� (MVSU), earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1967, followed by a Bachelor of Science degree in 1968. Despite receiving full-ride graduate scholarship offers from elite institutions, including Ivy League universities, he chose to remain at MVSU to complete a second undergraduate degree.
