BAINBRIDGE, Ga. (WALB) - Age is nothing but a number for one student at Southern Regional Technical College (SRTC) in Bainbridge. William Nichols has been a star student and his family couldn’t be happier to see his journey. William Nichols is a 77-year-old Commerical Driver’s License (CDL) student and he isn’t letting anything get in his way. “I don’t think there’s a limit to anything that you can do. I mean, I think that you could do anything that you set your mind to and although I’m an older person, I set my mind to do this and I’m going to do it,” said Nichols. Nichols spent most of his life as a pilot.
