Janet Fein, aged 84, received her bachelor's degree from the University last week, having waited a long time

for her chance to reach that goal.

Growing up in the Bronx area ofNew York City, Fein worked at a dress manufacturer after graduating early at

the age of 16. After getting married, she spent 18 years staying home with her children. She held several jobs

through her life, including 20 years as a secretary at a hospital until her retirement at age 77.

Fein has had a full life. But even then, she was not ready to take it easy and rest during a well-earned

retirement. She decided to major in sociology because she felt it was “substantial.”

Fein took part in a state program that lets people who are 65 and older take free classes at public universities

in Texasand kept going to class even as her health conditions worsened. During her studies, it became necessary

for her to use a walker to get around and she required oxygen. She also developed knee problems. So, Fein took

online classes to finish the last part of her degree requirements.

Sheila Rollerson, Fein' scollege advisor, and Carol, the professor told the media that Fein never showed signs

of giving up even with all of her difficulties. She would speak up a lot in class and it just made for a more

interesting class.

Fein has also inspired Renee Brown, one of Fein's caregivers. At 53, Renee plans to begin nursing school to

further her career. “Renee, you can do it. If I can do it you can do it, and you will feel so good about it,” Brown

remembers what Fein told her.
