In this session we talked how there are no age boundaries to go back to school. Age is just a number and you should go back to school at any time. One women stood up to share her story how she went back to get to get her G.E.D. at the age of 50. Now standing before us at the age of 64 she is in the possession of two Master's Degrees. It touched everyone in the room. It provided that extra push anyone needed to keep chugging along in school. It proved that their are NO Boundaries. Our culture only accepts children to learn and not Adult Learners. However, these women are fighting against society, and snotty remarks to further their education and themselves. Without education these women feel helpless. Education pushes them to be someone and provides them with hope. These women inspire me.
