Barron Trump Begins College with Secret Service

Barron Trump, the youngest son of former President Donald Trump, is preparing to start college this fall in New York, following his graduation from Florida's Oxbridge Academy. Although the specific university he will attend remains undisclosed, institutions like NYU, Columbia, and Cornell are potential options. He will be under the protection of the Secret Service, a standard protocol for children of former presidents, especially in light of increased security concerns following a recent assassination attempt on Donald Trump. Former Secret Service agent Paul Eckloff emphasized the challenges of balancing security with the need for a normal college experience, noting that agents aim to minimize disruption while ensuring safety. The heightened security measures come as Barron enters this new phase of life under the watchful eyes of agents tasked with protecting his privacy and well-being. As he embarks on this journey, Barron faces the unique pressures of being a presidential child in the age of social media.
