A 22-year-old disabled student and his father "graduated" together from Henan University of Science and Technology in Luoyang, Central China's Henan province. His devotion to his filial duties, a core value in China, motivated graduates when graduation season got underway in June.

Zhao Delong, the student, received a diploma and a degree certificate at the graduation ceremony on June 15. Meanwhile, Zhao Hankun, 71, his father, was also honored with a "diploma" and a "degree certificate" not for academics but for having a devoted son and for his healthy and long life.
