15-Year-Old Whiz Kid Graduates From Baltimore University!




A great story!!  Ty Hobson-Powell made history Sunday when he walked across the stage as the youngest person to graduate from The University Of Baltimore, completing four years of college in two years.


 
Here's what The Baltimore Sun reports -
 
"Hobson-Powell gave up a fledgling basketball career when he began college three years ago, commuted more than an hour each way from his home in Northwest Washington after transferring last fall from Howard University and once completed 27 credits in a single semester while shuttling between classes at Howard, Montgomery College and the Internet".



Ty will be going to law school in the fall, and is considering medical school after that!


Congratulations to Ty and his parents!!! 





We need to hear more stories like this!!!! 



To the mainstream media - African Americans are doing great things and we can make the news for other things besides crime!!!!!







I wonder if NBC, ABC, OR CBS will report this story???
