Senior scholars enjoy college learning stress-free

lyonsj — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 09:17:15 -0500

Mae Pasquariello doesn't have anxiety dreams about hourly exams, finals, or overdue papers. She doesn't worry about grades, or even class participation.

It could be because the 78-year-old earned her bachelor's degree in economics back when Dwight D. Eisenhower was president.

Yet Pasquariello is still in school - actually, at the same Ivy League campus in Philadelphia. It's just that this time around, she's taking classes as a senior auditor. That means she gets all the perks of a University of Pennsylvania classroom with none of the pressure.
