I am in need of someone from the United States aged 65 or older with at least a 4-year degree to answer some questions for me about their experiences in college. I am a graduate student at a Big Ten university and our conversation will be discussed in a course on the socio-cultural contexts of higher education. Of course, everything will remain strictly confidential. I would rather interviw someone that I know personally, but since I don't know anyone who meets these criteria I am forced to wander through the corridors of RHP looking for a kind soul who might want to help a perfect stranger. (Serious responses only, please.)

Help me help you. You need to talk to arrakis, he's a veritable font of wisdom. He's certainly over 65 and he's done (or got something to say) about everything.

It is more in Chemistry, but actually I know a guy who is quite good at geography so I might still be some use?

Failing that, try a few old-peoples homes. 🙁
