11 Year Old Is College Sophmore
<snip>

HAYWARD, Calif. -- Terence Candell Jr. isn't your ordinary college student.

The Cal State-East Bay sophomore is a kid. Terence is just 11 years old.

He's the youngest student on campus and is interested in mass communications.

Terence was doing high-school level work by age 6 and took his SATs when he was just 9.

While his academic future looks bright, being a kid genius does have some drawbacks. Unlike most of the other Cal State students, Terence needs to call his dad when he wants a ride home.

1. He is not alone--I know of at least 10 doing this or similar--
some people are just made that way! (Most don't want media coverage, their families consider it normal for their kid.)

3. If I don't hurry up and graduate, he's going to catch up to me.
