Barron Trump has been a student at Stern Business School at New York University for about six months. The son of Donald Trump got to take some days off from school when his father was sworn in as the 47th US President on January 20, but now, heโs back in the Big Apple to continue his studies. Several reports have emerged about his life on-campus, with students having a variety of things to say about him.
Barron Trumpย is escorted by several Secret Service agents while attending school. Meanwhile, the 18-year-old has been seen walking around campus with a black backpack, which appears to have a significant meaning behind it. In fact, Barron Trumpโs backpack paints a picture of his new life that not many might be familiar with.
Barron had been outside the spotlight for years before appearing with his father, Donald Trump, to celebrate the presidential election victory this past November. The 18-year-old son of Donald andย Melania Trumpย has always been an object of interest for people worldwide due to his height, and his star-status has only grown as heโs entered adulthood.
Since last year, Barron has been studying at Stern Business School at New York University. While not much is known about his life there, several students gave their verdict about the presidentโs son last fall.
The British newspaper Daily Mail spoke to several individuals who attend New York University, with some saying that Barron has become very popular among the ladies. Meanwhile, Secret Service agents trail him everywhere he goes.
Barron was caught by paparazzi photographers during his first day at NYU. Naturally many โregularโ people attend the school, and it appears they have mixed emotions about Barron.
โHeโs going to NYU, so if he is at all interested in girls, heโs going to become kind of liberal, Iโll tell you that,โ one student told the Daily Mail.
What NUY students think of Barron Trump
Another student stated: โMy mom is going to want me to marry him.โ
Secret Service agents will, as mentioned, follow Barron around campus all the time. A third student stated they felt โreally bad for himโ as he โdid not choose this life.โ
A fourth student said: โHis dad is his dad and he is own person so Iโm not going to judge,โ adding that she would definitely consider a friendship. โOf course, who wouldnโt want to be friends with a Trump?โ
However, not everyone is thrilled that the presidentโs son will study at NYU. One student said she would โabsolutely notโ be friends with Barron.
โIt speaks to the privilege that a lot of the NYU kids have. Iโm only here because of financial aid,โ the student in question told the Daily Mail.
According to aย People Magazineย source, the 18-year-old has been โpopular with the ladiesโ since starting classes in September.
โHeโs at Stern so heโs studying business in some way. Heโs a ladies man for sure. Heโs really popular with the ladies,โ the source said. โHeโs tall and handsome. A lot of people seem to think heโs pretty attractive โ yes, even liberal people like him.โ
Making new friends after arriving at a completely new place can be challenging. While beingย Donald Trumpโsย son might break a lot of ice, itโs most important for Barron to surround himself with people whoย wantย to be his friends, rather than those looking to buddy up with someone famous.
Barron Trump invites students to play videogames online with him
As Secret Service agents constantly surround Barron, it is most likely tricky to have a conversation with him in the first place. US outletย TMZย states he has struggled to blend in at New York University. However, he has found a clever way to connect with new college friendsโonline. The news outlet states that Barron has turned to online gaming, inviting classmates to play with him in the virtual world.
According to TMZ, he has invited them to join him on the popular gaming platform Discord, where users play games and chat with each other. Since heโs a big soccer fan, he plays the popular video game EA Sports FC 25.
Technically Barron could walk from Trump Tower to New York University, but thatโs naturally out of the question given the associated security risks. As such, heโs reportedly escorted to and from campus in an SUV. TMZ reports that classmates have described him as โchillโ while a new report about his life at NUY is now circulating.
โHeโs sort of like an oddity on campus,โย Kaya Walker,ย the president of NYU College Republicans, toldย Vanity Fair. โHe goes to class, he goes home.โ
Following his parentsโ White House exit in 2021, Barronโs life was a mystery. He, Donald, and Melania decided to move to Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, where the youngster attended the private Oxbridge Academy High School. While there were practically no forthcoming reports about his life there, rumors about him having a girlfriend did spread.
In answer to that speculation, his father, Donald Trump, claimed his son had never had a girlfriend, at least that he knew of.
Why Barron Trump carries a black backpack at NUY campus
Trying new things and getting to know new people is part of going to college, and in Barronโs case itโs no different. Shockingly, theย Daily Mailย even pointed out that the 21-year-old influencer Maria Arana, a Mexican American NYU student who grew up in Miami, could be a โfuture Mrs Barron Trump.โ
Speaking with Vanity Fair, Arana, who is studying child psychology at NYUโs Gallatin School of Individualized Study, said, โI just thought it was very random. But itโs not like I was against it.โ
The 21-year-old explained that she had never met Barron. However, she has spotted the procession of vehicles that have taken him to school. Trumpโs youngest son benefits from the security of the Secret Service, who take him to and from school and escort him around the place while heโs there. This, in and of itself, will perhaps make it harder for him to meet new friends.
Yet Barron may have a clever trick to ensure he at least appears approachable. He is said to carry a black backpack to school, and although itโs necessary for keeping pens, notebooks, and computers safe, there could also be a hidden reason behind it.
On TikTok, one user claimed that there is a specific reason Barron carries the $88 backpack wherever he goes.
โAs Trumpโs son, and the future heir, Barron is worth hundreds of millions of dollars, but he always carries an inexpensive black school bag. Barron lived a life of luxury from childhood. He was raised by Melania, and had a life of ease and plenty since he was a child;โ the user wrote, perย Express.
โAn ordinary studentโ
โHowever, no one would believe that under Trumpโs guidance, Barron is very thrifty in private. Since he entered college, he has been carrying an $88 black school bag, which makes Barron look more like an ordinary student.
โIt enables him to keep a low profile, and be more approachable in public, and allows him to participate in various activities more comfortably. In addition, since Trump became President, he has been opposed to extravagance and waste and has even donated his own money to charity at times.โ
The user on TikTok concluded: โIn order to follow in Trumpโs footsteps, Barron has always kept a low profile. Even at the age of 18, he has never bought luxury goods. To some extent, this can also better shape Barronโs positive image, prepare him for being the heir in the future and play a positive role in the overall image of the Trump family.โ
Barron has been praised for his character by his father and mother, and thereโs been no reason for people to doubt their judgement. Other than the opinions shared by Donald and Melania, zero reports have emerged regarding what heโs likeโฆ until recently.
Luxury styling service Bespoke Pearceโs chief executive officer, Nathan Pearce, helped the presidentโs son select several suits, dress shirts, and a cashmere overcoat for Donald Trumpโs inauguration.
Barron Turmpโs stylist reveals how he is really like
In an interview withย Womenโs Wear Daily, Pearce revealed some interesting things about Barron and his personality. Because of his private life, some might believe that Barron is relatively closed and quiet. However, that is far from the truth, according to Pearce.
โHeโs this super-bright kid. Heโs well beyond his years in terms of experience, knowledge, history. Heโs just very fascinating to talk to,โ he told Womenโs Wear Daily.
โYou know what is another word I would say [about him]? Hospitable. He is down-to-earth, nice as can be and hospitable,โ Pearce continued, recalling how Barron shook his hand when they first met, thanking him multiple times when he arrived at Mar-a-Lago. The youngster even offered to show the stylist around the Palm Beach estate.
โIโve thoroughly enjoyed getting to know him over the last one or two years,โ Pearce explained. He added that he didnโt take Trumpโs business for granted, wanting him to be very happy with his outfit.
โI recognize that Barron Trump could be choosing from tailors all over the world, and he chose me and Pearce Bespoke. Iโm super-grateful and super-proud of that,โ Pearce added.
Donald Trump might not be known for his great sense of humor, though that idea is a debate to be had another time. It appears the apple doesnโt fall far from the tree, with Pearce labeling Barronโs humor โdry.โ
โHeโs hilarious. But as I said, heโs super-sharp. You put him in a room with star businessmen, and he will hold his own. He can talk to them all day because heโs witty, smart, and has a dry sense of humor,โ the stylist concluded.
