On her "College Life" Tumblr, former "Family Ties" TV star Justine Bateman has been documenting what it's like to return to college later in life, and tackle a particularly challenging field–computer science. From a Fast Company profile:
In 2016, Bateman will graduate with a degree in digital management and computer science, having slogged through classes in everything from Java to C++ to CS111. Besides being an inspiration to other women (or men) who are opting for a higher-education degree at a time when most people are starting to dream about retirement or send their own kids off to college, College Life also provides a voice and platform for women whose stories are featured in the Smarty Pants Women section.
