Fowler, who earned a degree in divinity, told WJLA she believes God called her to Howard University’s program.
“It was never my thought that I would go beyond maybe one semester because, after all, I started school when I had been out of school since 1959,” Fowler said. “I didn’t even know if I could even retain information.”
Fowler has a message for folks who believe they’re too old to go to school, follow their calling, or accomplish their dreams.
“The other thing I wanna say is that it is never too late,” she said. “ I want everyone to realize that.”
