'Swan House' recipient graduates from college

Graduation ceremonies were held at St. Xavier University, and one of the graduates was Lynda Garrison. In October 2007, she won the "Swan House," a home in south suburban Riverdale that Chris Swan and ABC7's Jim Rose helped build. The idea behind the program was to build a home for a single mother pursuing her college education.

The journey came full circle Saturday as Garrison received her Bachelor of Science degree in nursing.
