In two weeks Nola Ochs will graduate from Fort Hays State University in Kansas. By doing so at age 95, she will become the world's oldest college graduate.
Her achievement was recently noted in the Philadelphia Inquirer and in many other news outlets.
"I work like a beaver," the Kansas native said. "When finals come, I work like two beavers."
Her degree, quite appropriately, is in History.

Though he's 55 years old and legally blind, Marvin Bottomley will become his High School's oldest graduate.
He recently attended the prom with his wife.
