Barron Trump is ditching “child-dom” and starting college at New York University, his father said in an interview with The Daily Mail this week. “He’s a very smart guy, and he’ll be going to Stern Business School, which is a great school at NYU,” former President Donald Trump said in the interview published Wednesday. “He’s a very high-aptitude child, but he’s no longer a child. He’s just passed into something beyond child-dom.
After all, the Trump Organization is based in New York City, and Trump Tower — where Barron Trump spent much of his childhood — is only a few miles north of the university. It’s also in the same city where the scandal-plagued Trump University was headquartered before it shut down in 2010. And NYU’s Stern school is home to the research professor who was paid almost $900,000 to testify for the defense in Trump’s civil fraud trial.
