Brigham Young University acknowledged its 300,000th alumnus at commencement last week.
With summer graduation, the number tops 300,000, so a computer randomly selected a student to represent that milestone.The student was Tricia Rencher Powell, a Centerville native receiving her bachelor's degree in home economics education. She had a job this fall teaching at Hillcrest High School. She lives in Provo with her husband, Zane.
