The heartbroken mum of a student who took his own life on his ­graduation day after being wrongly told he had failed will collect his degree today. ‌

Tracy Scott will attend a University of Glasgow ceremony to “honour Ethan Brown ’s memory, hard work and dedication to his studies and his dream of graduating”. Tracy found Ethan, 23, dead in his bedroom as they prepared to leave for his big day on December 13 last year – three months after Glasgow University told him in error he did not have the credits needed to graduate. ‌
