Levi Sanders received a B.A. in History from the University of Oregon.

By Peter D’Auria

A New York Times profile of U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders' fatherhood gives Oregonians one more reason to feel the Bern.

Sanders' son, Levi, is a University of Oregon alumnus.

The Times reports:

Levi Sanders received a B.A. in history in 1992.

Little detail is available on Levi Sanders' undergraduate days in Eugene. But his father enjoys substantial support in Oregon.

His Aug. 9 rally at Moda Center broke attendance records, with a crowd of 28,000 turning out to see the candidate.
