WTG Mr. Stewart Jr. and Southern!!!!
Stewart believed to be youngest fulltime college student to enroll in Southern

Fourteen-year-old Polite Stewart Jr. on the surface seems like a typical freshman starting at a new school.
But typical he isn?t.
Stewart is beginning his first semester today at Southern University, weeks before most people his age have even entered high school.
Polite (pronounced poh-leet) is believed to be Southern?s youngest full-time student ever, according to the college.
The home-schooled Scotlandville product isn?t your stereotypical, socially awkward prodigy either.
Stewart stands about 5 feet 9 inches tall and he?s already growing a little facial hair, maybe to fit in better at college. He speaks more eloquently than most people 10 years his senior.
But it was just a couple years ago when he realized he was so much more advanced academically than others his age.
?It doesn?t bother me because, to me, I?m still just a regular kid,? Stewart said. ?I just did the work required to excel.
