The Youngest Professor in the History of the World

The Guinness Book of World Records recently named Alia Sabur as the youngest college professor in the history of the world. She was hired as a physics and math instructor in the Department of Advanced Technology Fusion at Konkuk University in South Korea - before her 18th birthday. The previous record was held by a student of physicist Isaac Newton, Colin Maclaurin, who set the mark in 1717. The reason this story caught my eye is that Alia Sabur is from Northport, New York!
