A 16-year-old Kansas boy will soon earn his high school diploma — and a few days later, he'll travel to Harvard to collect his bachelor's degree. Ulysses High School senior Braxton Moral will attend both commencement ceremonies in May, becoming the only student to successfully pursue a four-year high school degree and a bachelor's degree from Harvard at the same time.
Harvard has changed the rules, said Braxton's father, Carlos Moral, so his son will be "the one and only" reaching that milestone. Braxton will be 17 when he gets his diplomas. The Ulysses school allowed him to take some high school classes while he was still in middle school. Before high school, he took a class offered at Fort Hays State University. Then he was admitted into Harvard.
Braxton both studied at the high school and the Harvard Extension School. The program typically serves adults who work and can't attend classes on campus full time. "We constantly are monitoring Braxton to make sure he is not too overwhelmed," said Julie Moral, Braxton's mother. "No achievement is worth him being unhappy."
