4. This wasn’t a surprise because she’s whip smart, but … Katherine graduated from high school at 14, and then graduated from college at 17. And now is getting an MS in Economics. We’re not saying everyone else is lazy. But what were YOU doing at 14?
Thanks so much 4 the love & graduation tweets, #kitkats! I did indeed graduate with a 4 year university degree! #happykat #bachelorsdegree
