Presidents Teddy and Franklin Delano Roosevelt — who were distantly related — each attended Columbia Law School, but neither officially graduated. In 1901, at age 43, Teddy Roosevelt became the youngest president in history when William McKinley was assassinated. FDR, who was president from 1933 to 1945, was known for the New Deal and other Great Depression programs. Both Roosevelts were awarded posthumous law degrees in 2008, making them official members of the classes of 1882 (Teddy) and 1907 (FDR).
