I know jealousy is bad and all but how can I not be jealous of this boy? He began to read on his own at age 2!!! By the time he was four, he was reading "Harry Potter". His name is Colin Carlson. Colin is currently a sophmore student at the University of Connecticut, for a bachelor's degree in ecology and evolutionary biology. Colin skipped two grades in public school and began taking psychology, history and other courses at UConn when he was 9. He graduated from Stanford University Online High School at age 11, and soon after enrolled full-time at UConn.
On Thursday March 25, 2010, he sued UCONN because the university rejected his request to take a class that includes summer field work in South Africa. He has filed a complaint that the university is discriminating him from other students just because of his age. He sais that he done have much time left.
Uummm, what is wrong that you don't have much time left? You only 13 for crying out loud!!! You have your whole life in front of you uugghh.
