Rory John Gates (surprise, surprise) has a pretty good head on his shoulders. When he was 10 years old, he wrote a poem about the physics called "Rory's Diamante Poem," which made his father quite proud. Bill published the poem on his blog, writing that it came as a result of an educational vacation to Europe. "Melinda and I tutored our kids while we all were in Europe on vacation," Bill wrote. "We visited museums and historical sites and tried to help them appreciate different cultures. I handled the science tutoring, and one of our topics was the physics of light." Rory's resulting poem is word bubble-style, taking the shape of a diamond. It's pretty impressive for age 10!
In fact, Rory has followed in his parents' footsteps in many ways. He attended Lakeside School in Seattle, Wash. just like his dad and sisters, per The Sun. Rory then got his bachelor's degree at Duke University, just like his mom. His mother said she spent, "some of the best years of my life," earning two degree at Duke.
Rory and his siblings were also given a religious education, per Rolling Stone. As Bill Gates said, "We've raised our kids in a religious way; they've gone to the Catholic church that Melinda goes to and I participate in." Bill added that reducing inequality in the world is another "religious belief" they've passed down.
