NEW ORLEANS, La. – Ada Mui, a professor at the Columbia University School of Social Work, received the Outstanding Mentorship Award from the Gerontological Society of America at the group's conference in New Orleans earlier this month. In a video interview with New Tang Dynasty TV, Mui discussed her teaching and work with older adults in Hong Kong and the United States. She says studies show continuing education can enrich seniors’ lives after retirement and promote well-being. New Tang Dynasty videographer Ke Yuan and reporter Mei Zhou produced the video as part of the MetLife Foundation Journalists in Aging Fellowship, a project of GSA and New America Media.
