Mary Weeks, of Alma, visits with SIU President Glenn Poshard Monday at the Stone Center. Weeks, a 104 year-old alumna of SIU, told her son Charles that she wanted to meet with Poshard and tell him about her time at the university. Charles Weeks and President Poshard had both attended the same high school. “Mrs. Weeks has to be one of the oldest alumni I’ve ever met,” Poshard said. Weeks said her favorite part of being a student were the classes she took at Old Main. — Chris Zoeller | Daily Egyptian
