Eighty-three years after leaving her master’s program at Stanford University for love, 105-year-old Virginia “Ginger” Hislop returned to earn her degree, proving it’s never too late to get an education. Hislop’s journey began in 1936 at Stanford University School of Education, where she pursued a bachelor’s degree in education. She graduated in 1940 and promptly embarked on obtaining her master’s degree in education to fulfill her ambition of becoming a teacher.
After leaving Stanford, Hislop went on to a career in Washington state politics, getting her start on a local school board after her daughter Anne's school suggested she take home economics instead of advanced English. She would later chair the Yakima School Board of Directors, become a founding member of the board of directors for Yakima Community College, and help to start Heritage University in Toppenish, Washington, where she served on the board for 20 years.
