Janitor Filipaj, the Dream Pursuer
Verena Dobnik
1 For years, Gac Filipaj mopped floors, cleaned toilets and took out trash at Columbia University.
A refugee from war-torn Yugoslavia, he made a living working for the Ivy League school since
1993. But Sunday, May 13, 2012, was payback time: The 52-year-old janitor put on a cap and
gown to graduate with a bachelor’s degree in classics.
2 As a Columbia employee, he didn’t have to pay for the classes he took. His favorite subject was
the Roman philosopher and statesman Seneca, the janitor said to the Associated Press reporter
during a break from his work at the student union building he cleans. “(1) I love Seneca’s letters
because they’re written in the spirit in which I was educated in my family — not to look for fame
and fortune, but to have a simple, honest, honorable life,” he said.
