77- year old Ed Guest is the oldest student at Stayer University and may actually be one of the oldest college students in the country.
But that's not what sets him apart.
Ed is a retired Navy man and has experienced a lot of history first hand. So that qualifies him to help teach some of his history classes.

His fellow classmates are in awe of him as he tells them about the Cold War, Missile Crisis and Korea, from a personal view of someone who was actually in the middle of those events.
 

He is also encouraging baby boomers as well as their children to go back to school.
