Secret Service agents follow Barron around campus all the time. Some students felt bad for him as he didn’t choose this life, while others said they wouldn’t judge him and would consider a friendship with him.
Making friends at a new place can be challenging for Barron. While his family name might help break the ice, it’s important for him to have genuine friends. He has struggled to blend in at NYU, but he’s found a way to connect with classmates online by inviting them to play video games on the platform Discord, especially playing EA Sports FC 25 as he’s a soccer fan.
He’s escorted to and from campus in an SUV for security reasons. Classmates have described him as “chill” and he’s seen as an “oddity” on campus as he just goes to class and goes home.
After his parents left the White House in 2021, Barron attended the private Oxbridge Academy High School in Palm Beach, Florida. There were rumors about him having a girlfriend, which his father denied.
