In 1978, Washington journalist Jerry Brazda bet retired U.S. Navy Vice Adm. (Dr.) Donald Custis that USU would never graduate a student. On May 24, 1980, graduation day for USU's first class, Brazda paid his debt by check. Custis then donated it to USU's dean, Dr. Jay Sanford, "for some good student cause". (Photo: Tom Balfour, USU)
