Edward Gimmi dreams in pastels, watercolors and charcoal.

And today, the 72-year-old retired mechanical designer will live out his dream when he walks with the graduating class at Rowan University.

The oldest graduate among the 2,230 students, Gimmi earned a bachelor's degree in art, a labor of love that was 10 years in the making.
