Martin Luther King Jr.
King went to segregated schools in Georgia, and finished high school at age 15.  He went on to Morehouse College in Georgia, where his father and grandfather had gone.  After graduating from college in 1948, King decided he was not exactly the type of person to join the Baptist Church. He was not sure what kind of career he wanted. He thought about being a doctor or a lawyer. He decided not to do either, and joined the Baptist Church.
