Kyle Rittenhouse says at trial he's studying nursing at ASU; school responds. - Ah, not quite...

PHOENIX – Kyle Rittenhouse said he was studying nursing at Arizona State University while testifying Wednesday at his Wisconsin murder trial, but the school said that wasn’t exactly the case.

When asked if he was enrolled in studies after graduating from high school, Rittenhouse replied from the witness stand, “I’m a college student studying nursing at Arizona State University.”

Rittenhouse’s reference to ASU was mentioned in multiple national reports about the trial, including from The New York Times, CNN and ABC News.

When asked for confirmation, an ASU spokesman said Rittenhouse started a non-degree online program last month, but the 18-year-old hasn’t gone through the university’s admissions process and wasn’t enrolled at its college of nursing.

Can't expose him as a repeated liar, that would be prejudicial!

Jurors could be sequestered for Rittenhouse trial, but there's a "less than 1% chance" that'll happen, judge says

The course is presented by a college. He is studying nursing in the course.

Now it may not be what we have in mind when we picture "college student." But I figure he literally is correct in the statement.
