By the way, I was really, really surprised when I went back at 55 that I actually had a lot of breain cells still there. Got a 4.0 average. Thing is, these durn kids, sleep through class, walk in late wearing their sweats inside out, probably right out of bed at noon class time. I knew what I wanted and was paying for though and perhaps they have not decided yet. (No offense to the younger generation, got two boys of my own who somehow got through their college educations - but spent more time probably working on a class schedule that allowed them to roll out at 11:30 in the morning;-)
I figure my life is mine now, I worked lots of years already, can work part-time and study the rest again. It is a real challenge and self-esteem booster when you accomplish more and enter a field you have longed for. I know I will probably never retire and most likely won't want to.
