Episode 31: University for Seniors members: Suma & Hassan

Advanced Episode: 10 years ago, the American University of Beirut launched a very unique program that remains unique in the Middle East- University for Seniors. Today's seniors want to remain intellectually challenged and socially engaged, actively contributing to their community. I spoke with Suma & Hassan who are students at UFS about their experience.
