A Maryland man who used to haul trash and clean dumpsters to make ends meet is pursuing his dream of going to Harvard Law School. News4 s Aimee Cho reports.
While attending the University of Maryland, Rehan Staton of Bowie struggled to make ends meet. He kept his job as a sanitation worker, hauling trash before class. Sometimes there wasn’t time for a shower.
“I would have to sit on the side of class and try not to bother anybody with my scent that day,” Staton said.
He managed to get through it and gave the commencement speech at graduation before heading off to Harvard Law.
