An article at the University of Texas at Dallas’ website yesterday tells the story of 90-year-old Helen Small, who has just now graduated with her Master of Science degree in Psychological Sciences from the distinguished university, known for its excellence in that very field. I encourage y’all to check it out –- from the sound of it, Helen is truly an inspiration for living life to the fullest into one’s later years. I’ll need to brush up on my undergrad neuroscience so that if she and I meet up we’ve got a few things to talk about! Thanks to my friend Flora for pointing me to this article about her classmate.
