Depressed wife sits through hubby’s classes

AN 80-year-old professor from China's Jiangsu University of Science and Technology brings his wife, who is suffering from depression, to his classes so that he can take care of her while giving his lectures.
The professor would seat his wife in the last row of the class before he starts his lectures.

She would listen to his lectures but sometimes, she would walk up to the professor.
The professor would apologise to his students before bringing his wife to her seat and continue his lessons, it reported.

The news about the professor and his wife has been circulating on the Internet and the news has touched many Netizens.
However, some wondered why the professor has not retired at the age of 80.
According to the university, the professor was re-hired because he gave good lectures and the students liked to attend his classes.
