Triple graduation for Manchester’s most studious family
July 2006Triplet students the Shtrosbergs enjoyed their graduation ceremonies at the University in July, with middle sibling Sivan receiving a BSc in Psychology. Brothers Sagi and Kfir graduated in BA Economic and Social Studies.
The triplets, whose parents live in Prestwich but originate from Israel, were born one minute apart, and lived on the same corridor in their student halls of residence. They follow in the footsteps of their elder brother Oz, who received a BSc Economics from Manchester in 2005.
Proud father Itzik said: “To have one child graduate at The University of Manchester is good, two very good, three excellent - but four, well that’s unbelievable.
“It was a bit of a headache financing their university stay but it was well worth it.”
Sivan is going to work as a special needs assistant in a Manchester school for a year, before returning to the University to do a Masters degree.
