Malia Obama Checks Into Harvard Dorm With Help From Barack and Michelle, Who Cover Their Eyes As They Make Emotional Exit After Saying Goodbye To The College FreshER

Barack and Michelle Obama move Malia to Harvard
The oldest daughter of Barack and Michelle Obama moved into her Harvard University dormitory on Monday afternoon, one day before her fellow students began arriving with their parents. The family was joined by members of the Secret Service as they pulled up to Malia's new residence in a two-SUV envoy, managing to avoid detection despite the thousands of people around the campus and in Cambridge. 

That was due in large part to their timing, with the Obamas electing to get everything moved and Malia settled into her new digs during the solar eclipse. Then it was time to say goodbye, which did not look easy for the parents of the 19-year-old freshman.

She comes in peace: Malia Obama moved into her new dormitory at Harvard University on Monday afternoon (above on Tuesday outside the dorm)
Barack and Michelle had their sunglasses on long before they exited Malia's dorm and kept their faces looking down as they rushed into their SUV, leaving their daughter behind to start her new life at dad's alma mater. 

Barack has made no secret in the past about how emotional he gets at these moments, also crying when daughter Malia graduated high school back in June of 2016.
He was even brought to tears in September 2015 during a speech in Michigan while recounting sending Malia off to her first day of senior year, revealing he choked up when his daughter told him: 'Daddy, you know, you realize this is probably going to be the last time that you ever send me off for my first day of school.'
Barack has also admitted that when he does cry, he immediately puts on his sunglasses.
Best of buds: Malia seemed to have previously known the young woman she was spotted with on Tuesday

Malia did not let her early check in stop her from being social however, and on Tuesday she headed out to stand with her fellow dorm residents as they got to know one another. 
For her big college debut Malia put on some very stylish and fancy threads, opting for a $275 top by Alexander Wang which she paired with a black baby doll dress and white sneakers. 
She was not looking to make a scene however, and when approached by one reporter from the Boston Globe and asked if she would be willing to speak with him she politely declined by saying "I can't" and shook his hand.
And most of the students and parents showed no special interest in the famous student, something that Harvard has prided itself on in the past when welcoming the likes of Natalie Portman to their campus.
Malia will not be the only big name on campus either, with 'Black-ish' star Yara Shahidi set to start classes a little later in the year.
