There was a factual error in the story. Originally, the story listed Tye as a man in women's clothing when she was in fact transgender. The Associated Press corrected the article the same day, but did not issue an official retraction.

Sheri Milhollin always imagined that she would attend college. She just never thought she would attend college with her children.

Two of Milhollin's children attend TCU and plan to graduate before their mother. Milhollin, a 46-year-old communication studies major, said because she could take only six hours a semester, she might take up to 10 years to graduate.

But she is committed to obtaining her degree. Last year, 155 nontraditional students entered TCU, according to an e-mail written by Director of Transfer Admissions Joael Kelly.
