BOCA RATON, Fla. (AP) - April 6, 2010

The World War II Purple Heart veteran is the oldest undergrad at Lynn University in South Florida.

He decided to hit the books after retiring from a career in the vacuum cleaner and lawn-mowing businesses.

He wants to be a psych major and plans to graduate in late 2011.

Slotnick says he'd like to become the nation's oldest practicing psychologist.

He adds he wants to offer fellow vets free counseling.
