Age is certainly just a number for one middle schooler taking on college at Baldwin Wallace University. At 14 years old he is the youngest full-time student in the university’s history.

But if you ask William Warren this is not a special story, and he is not a special kid. He says this is a story of a kid who finally felt seen and was encouraged to do more to make something of his passion in physics.Though like many kids, Warren struggled to stay motivated in school.

That is until covid. Warren started homeschooling and eventually started taking Harvard University physics and chemistry classes online. As he explained, “that led me to Professor Meyer because I was looking for somebody to ask questions to. [That’s] really what I had always wanted. He really saw the potential in me I think and everything kind of developed from there.”

“A lot of students I don’t think have the opportunity to reach their potential because they’re not challenged. If you give a student a hard problem, the difference is some students treat it like an unpleasant duty and he treats it like an opportunity to learn and that’s the key to success,” Meyer said.

“This kind of fell into my lap and I’m really glad the way things worked out you know? I’m doing my passion and I’m trying to perfect my craft and be the best that I can be.”
