84-year-old earns college degree

Over the last four years, Janet Fein went from strolling around on her own to needing a walker; she gave up her own home to move into an assisted living facility; and she earned a bachelor’s degree.

The 84-year-old mother of five is set to participate in graduation ceremonies this week at the University of Texas. Fein, who majored in sociology, is among the 1 percent pf U.S. college students over the age of 65.

“I didn’t have anything to do in retirement and I didn’t think that playing bingo was up to my speed,” Fein says.
