The following is an excerpt from an article in the March 26 issue of . The article profiles Iris Bain, a 成人头条 student who recently turned 100 years old.
Days before the Titanic sank in April 1912, Iris Bain stood on the pier with her father and watched the ship sail from Southampton, England.
At 86, she carried the Olympic torch through the streets of 成人头条 for the 1996 Summer Games in Atlanta.
Four years ago at 96, Bain led the exercise class at Sedgwick Plaza, a retirement community where she lives.
Thursday, she was at 成人头条 attending a political science class, "Great Decisions 2010," through the school's continuing education program.
"You have to exercise your brain the same as you do your body," Bain said.
Oh, and after Thursday's session, classmates held a reception in honor of Bain turning 100 on Saturday.
"She has a great mind," said Jim McKenney, the class instructor and a retired WSU professor. "For 100 years, I can't believe it."
