The names ranged from English, African, Jewish and even Russian pronunciations as Morehouse College celebrated its 130th commencement exercises.

Despite the rain and cold, parents and Morehouse graduates were excited to finally graduate after a hard year.


Among those in attendance was Stevie Wonder, who was able to experience his son, Kwame Morris, become part of the class of 2014.

Rolling out was there along with close to 10,000 others. Here are a few highlights from the event.
