81-Year-Old Earns Bachelor's Degree From Bethel University

81 year-old Janice Hall is a great grandmother who recently graduated from Bethel University in Indiana.

She earned her bachelor's degree in organizational management that was on her bucket list several years ago.

Hall had suffered a stroke, two battles with breast cancer and the loss of her husband.

She wants others to know that they are capable of anything they put their mind to.

She told Hawaii News Now,

“My age and my disability has not defined me. There's much more for us to do, even as older individuals. We have wisdom that we can share with the younger generation," said Hall.

“To receive the accolades and the love and the support that I’ve received throughout this day has been wonderful,”

“I was doing nothing, and gotten bored, so I thought this was a good opportunity to finish what I started,” Hall said.

Hall has been accepted into Bethel's master's program in Ministry starting this fall. “It will assist me with some of the practical things that I need to carry out that degree and to do what God has called me to do,” Hall said.
