But it's a viral moment that speaks to so many things: lack of childcare. The drive to seek an education. And compassion from others. With midterms looming, Wayne Hayer didn't want to miss his algebra class Friday at Morehouse College in Atlanta and couldn't find childcare for his five-month-old daughter. It was an important class, since they were reviewing content for the upcoming midterms. So he brought her along.

My professor NATHAN ALEXANDER said"I'll hold her so you can take good notes!" #HBCU #morehouse #Respect pic.twitter.com/oogIqetseS — TheOriginal™ March 1, 2019 "It was this encounter that truly showed me the power and impact HBCU's can have for the black community, for this professor to understand that life happens and sometimes there are just no ways around it," another student posted on Facebook, using an acronym for historically black colleges and universities such as Morehouse.The photos even reached Morehouse College President David Thomas, who tweeted,"This is about #love and #commitment.

On top of it all, baby Assata was the perfect student and didn't distract from the day's lesson."She was really behaved and even started to fall asleep at the end," said Alexander."We had a bottle ready on standby, if needed. We enjoyed having her energy in class."

Such a sweet baby

🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶

There’s definitely still good people out there in the world ✨

😦😀

Why is he cute ? the baby makes him cuter😇😍😍

Is the professor Randall Pearson?

He should be sacked, he denied the other students his full attention. I would have walked out his class and deregister his course. I will also write a formal letter of complaint to the vice chancellor asking for a part refund and delete the student's number from my phone.

What are we teaching our kids?

😁👍

Two great examples of awesomeness - both Dad and Prof. Love this 💕

Awesome prof goes above beyond expectations 💚

The world can be such a better place with this kind of mentality.

How old is this story now?

lol it's great, truly great, but another repost? Sloooow news cycle if we're rotating in the same human interest stories lol

Some professors are actually about their students succeeding. Others are assholes that demand you purchase several of their books, and don’t use half of them.

Supportive you will say, saying yes to others needs... Peharps he too may someday..

Nice one prof.

👍👍👍

I doubt if any of my professors would have done that! It was very nice of him to do that!

Above and beyond to help a student.....💕

Heart beat extremely fast for this, praise the lord. Amen

Thanks prof🙏🏼
