Branden Millsâ journey to graduation is one filled with firsts.
Mills, a senior sociology and psychology double major at Midland University, is a Nebraska transplant. He grew up in Delaware before moving to Nebraska as a senior in high school to attend Millard North High School in Omaha.
âComing from the East Coast and moving to Nebraska for my senior year was something that I thought was going to be really hard and it turned out for the better,â he said.
