Mary Fasano gave the Commencement address at Harvard University's 1997 degree awarding ceremony. On that day she became the oldest person ever to receive an undergraduate degree from Harvard.
I remember one night a few years ago when my daughter was frantic with worry. After my Harvard Extension School classes, I usually arrived at the bus station near my home by 11 PM, but on that night I was nowhere to be found. My daughter was nervous. It wasn't safe for a single woman to walk alone on the streets at night, especially one as defenseless as I am.
That night my daughter checked the bus station, drove around the streets, and contacted some friends. However, she couldn't find me, until she called my astronomy professor who told her that I was on top of the Science Center using the telescope to gaze at the stars. Unaware of the time, I had gotten lost in the heavens and was only thinking about the new things I had learned that night in class.
This story illustrates a habit I have developed over the years — I lose track of time when it comes to learning. How else do you explain a woman who began high school at age 71 and who is graduating with a bachelor's degree at 89? I may have started late, but I will continue to learn as long as I am able because there is no greater feeling, in my opinion, than traveling to a far away country as I have and being able to identify by sight the painting of a famous artist and the statue of an obscure sculptor. I have found that the world is a final exam that you can never be prepared enough for. So I will continue to take classes and tell my story.
Lately it seems that everyone is asking me, "Mary, what advice do you have for other students?" So, while I have you all here, I'm going to ease my burden of answering you each individually.
