Joy all around as a 63-year-old dad and his 27-year-old son in New Jersey, US graduated from the same university together.

Duvinson Jeanty graduated with a degree in finance, his son Ben earned a degree in psychology - both from William Paterson University - on Friday, May 19.

Their achievement was even more significant because they are the first members of their family to get college degrees.

Duvinson is a Haitian immigrant who first arrived in the US in the mid-1980s and worked as a bus driver for 27 years before retiring in 2015. Ben said his father's hard work always set an example to the rest of his family.
