Melania Trump recently provided an update on her son Barron, who is thriving during his first semester at New York University's Stern School of Business. She stated that he is enjoying his classes and the New York City environment. However, some faculty members, including interim dean JP Eggers, have previously expressed critical views of Donald Trump, signing a letter in 2020 that warned a Trump presidency posed a threat to American business. Melania has also addressed past cruelty directed at Barron, including hurtful speculation about his mental health, which she described as 'appalling'. Her memoir touches on these experiences and her feelings regarding online bullying, which inspired her anti-cyberbullying initiative, 'Be Best'. Despite the challenges, Barron appears to be adapting well to university life.
