World's oldest college graduate, CEO

Kansas (US) resident Nola Ochs will break a Guinness World Record when she graduates from Fort Hays State University next month, at the age of 95. Her 21-year-old granddaughter will graduate with her. What is her plan with that degree ? "I am going to seek employment on a cruise ship as a storyteller," She said.

At age 106, Jack Weil (Denver,US) still goes to work every day at Rockmount Ranch Wear, the western clothing apparel company he founded in 1946. He is believed to be the world's oldest CEO. Company's cowboy shirts have been on shopping list of many celebrities (Ronald Reagan, Elvis Presley, 'Brokeback Mountain' movie crew, to name a few).
