00:25This graduate is a 105-year-old grandmother.
00:31She finished her master's degree and received a 83-year-old graduation certificate.
00:37The story goes like this.
00:38More than 80 years ago, she was still a young girl.
00:41She had already entered Stanford University in 1936,
00:44and completed her master's degree four years later.
00:47Later, she loved to study and wanted to continue her studies.
00:50But in the second year of her master's degree,
00:52she had already completed all the courses,
00:55and was preparing to submit her thesis.
00:57Unfortunately, the Second World War broke out
01:00and interrupted her planned study career.
01:03The war broke out suddenly, and her boyfriend was recruited to join the army.
01:07So she decided to get married as soon as possible.
01:09Before graduating, she left the campus and went to the US military base in Oklahoma.
01:13After the war ended, she had no way to focus on studying because of her child.
01:17Although she couldn't finish her master's degree,
01:20she still worked hard for the education industry during this period.
01:23In addition to working in an educational institution,
01:25she also helped to set up universities in remote cities.

01:31she still maintains the habit of reading and is active in the education industry,
01:35which makes many young people admire her spirit of living and learning.
01:39As Stanford University adjusted its degree requirements,
01:42the master's students no longer needed to submit their thesis.
01:45Grandma finally got her master's degree, which had been delayed for more than 80 years.
01:49When she put on her diploma, stood up from her seat at the graduation ceremony,
01:53and walked up to the stage to receive her master's degree,
01:55the audience applauded.
01:57She couldn't help but say,
01:58Oh my god!
02:00I've been waiting for this moment for a long time.
02:03I want to pay tribute to Grandma.
02:05Live to learn, learn to speak.
