Today’s Al Roker Shares Rare Photo of Son Nick Roker Heading to College

There’s a new student in Al Roker’s neck of the woods.

The Today anchor’s son Nick Roker is pursing higher learning once again, with Al sharing a photo of the 24-year-old moving into his new college dorm.

“Another drop off for my young man,” the 72-year-old wrote in a recent Instagram post. “Gonna miss him but as Al Roker Sr. always said, #cantmissyouifyoudontleave. So very proud of him.”

Indeed, this wasn’t Al’s first time dropping off Nick at a college campus. After all, Nick previously spent three years studying communication at Vermont’s Landmark College before graduating with an associate degree in 2025.

“Three years ago, we dropped him off as a first-year college student,” Al captioned photos and video of Nick at his graduation ceremony in May 2025. “Today @nickroker155 has his #associatesdegree in #communications and we could not be prouder of how hard he has worked and is determined to get his #bachelorsdegree.”

Al’s wife Deborah Roberts—who shares Nick and daughter Leila Roker, 27, with the morning show host—has been equally moved by their son’s determination.
