Dennis Quaid is becoming one well-decorated alumnus, after receiving the President’s Medallion at Saturday’s graduation ceremony and receiving the Distinguished Alumni Award just last year.

Quaid recently tied up the first season on his TV show “Vegas.” Under the educational influence of Cecil Pickett and Sidney Berger, Quaid recounted his time at the University and attributed his drive and success to the theater department.
