“Teach me, O LORD, the way of Your statutes, and I shall keep it to the end. Give me understanding, and I shall keep Your law; indeed, I shall observe it with my whole heart.”
In 2007, Nola Ochs graduated from Fort Hays State University with a general studies degree with an emphasis on history. She started taking classes at a community college after her husband of 39 years, Vernon, died in 1972. Yes. You read that right. Nola was 95 years old when she received her degree and broke the Guinness World Records for being the world’s oldest college graduate. When doing an interview with NBC News, she said, "I don't dwell on my age. It might limit what I can do. As long as I have my mind and health, it's just a number."
