This happened on Tuesday. He's in the class I had on Monday. He was acting weird in class on Monday. He interrupted lecture to deliver a rant on how the medical community shouldn't tell him how many hours of sleep he needs (I should mention the lecture was related to sleep research). Also, before class he explained to one of my classmates how most grad students are incompetent and their thesis work is bullshit. Then he handed her a book about the Rastafari movement. He excused himself from class nearly an hour early, telling the instructor that "he had a lot going on" and that he was hungry.

I'm too lazy to edit my post. Was he on drugs? Which drug? Was it something else?

sounds like a text book schizophrenic episode to me. its been a while any follow up on what it was out there?

Nope. It was all over the news the following weekend, stuff like: "Crazed student threatens teacher with knife! ... well, he was holding a knife! ... well, ok, it was folded up next to the screwdriver and the pliers, but there was a knife in there, we swear!"

Well, there was a followup to say he was out on $20,000 bail.

Also, considering the glacial rate at which this intarblog progresses, The time of day of a comment seems far less relevant than the day (or even month). Perhaps I should look into that. Probably some sort of options menu?
