A 10-year-old girl has received a full-ride scholarship to South Carolina State University, the HBCU announced recently. The news came as a surprise as Kendall Rae Johnson toured the university’s facilities. She had previously become the youngest USDA-certified farmer in Georgia at just 6 years old.
Johnson was visiting South Carolina State’s Research and Demonstration Farm when she received a scholarship offer from the university’s president, Alexander Conyers.
