Tom Maroney says he felt a mix of emotions today as he watched his former student at Syracuse University’s law school take the oath of office to serve as president of the United States.
Maroney, 82, was a first-year professor at SU when Joe Biden, a third-year law student, took his “legislation” class in 1968.
Biden earned an “A” in the class and has since disclosed it was the only one that he received at SU’s College of Law.
“I’m very proud of him,” Maroney said after watching the inauguration on TV from his home in Manlius.

As a child, Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. wrestled with words, grappling with a boyhood stutter. Years later, as a young politician, he could not stop saying them, quickly developing a reputation for long-winded remarks. It was words that undercut his first two campaigns for the White House, with charges of plagiarism ending his 1988 bid and verbal missteps that hampered his 2008 outing from nearly the first moments. And it was his self-described penchant for being a gaffe machine, as he once put it, that would cement his vice presidential nickname of Uncle Joe, the endearing relative who prompts the occasional wince.
