Barron Trump is a sophomore in college, but can he act like one?
The son of the President of the United States isn't seen or heard from much. That is probably be design. His mother, Melania Trump, has made it very clear that she wants to protect her son from the spotlight.
Meanwhile, his dad, of course, is the most famous person on the planet. President Trump has been quite active in the sports scene, too. He's attended the Super Bowl, the U.S. Open, the Daytona 500, the Ryder Cup and more.

One of the easiest way to make friends in college is by being active - and pickup basketball is great for that.
College students all over the world bond on the pickup basketball court. Many will play daily. Barron Trump was reportedly asked to play by some classmates, but he had to refuse.
Barron Trump saddened his classmates by telling them that he wasn't allowed to play.
“He’s sort of like an oddity on campus,” Kaya Walker, the president of NYU College Republicans, told Vanity Fair. “He goes to class, he goes home.”
Many are saddened by Barron's admission
"Depressing to hear that," one wrote.
"No matter who he is, everyone deserves a fun college experience," one added.
"Can't believe that. How sad," one added.
"Pickup basketball is a right of passage for every guy in college. He needs to play," one shared.
It's unfortunate, that's for sure.
