So more than 5 decades.

The school I retired from allows me to take up to 6 credits/2 classes per semester, so I'm pursuing a BFA in photography. It's gonna take me about a decade, since I not only have to complete the courses for the major, I have to complete about 60 hours of BFA-specific courses (history and studio, mostly). Ohio lets anyone over 60 audit any class with open seats at any public university - I'm surprised how few people take advantage of the opportunity. (Many states have similar programs.)
