CANBERRA, Australia (AP) - A 94-year-old great-great-grandmother who left school at the age of 12 appears to be the world's oldest recipient of a master's degree, an official with Guinness World Records said Friday.
University of Adelaide graduate Phyllis Turner was awarded her master's degree in medical science earlier this week at a ceremony in her hometown of Adelaide, surrounded by generations of offspring.
"We do have the category for oldest Master's graduate, but we don't have a current record," said spokeswoman Amarilis Espinoza in London.
