Default Michigan Professor Strips Naked In Class, Shouts 'There Is No F--king God'

The rigors of teaching apparently got to Michigan State University professor John McCarthy Monday.

According to multiple sources, the math teacher stripped naked in the middle of his Calculus 1 class and started shouting obscenities.

Freshman Kyle Hillman told MLive.com that while walking the class through a routine derivative equation, McCarthy said, "Math is all about questions and answers. And Steve Jobs invented the computer, but what do computers do? They ask questions and we answer them."

"He started talking about his colleagues and how they're all actors," Hillman told MLive.com. "He said, 'It's all an act and none of it's real.' Then he ran out of the classroom."

Reddit user TheCookieKing posted Monday (photo courtesy WILX Lansing):

Background story: I was in Calc 1 at Michigan State University, and my teacher was always pretty eccentric, but today he went overboard. Half way through class, he started screaming at us -- swearing left and right. He then started slamming his hands on the window and pressing his face against it, still screaming. Eventually he walked out and down the hallway to the end, all while screaming. He then came back into the classroom and took off his clothes, except for his socks. You know someones [sic] crazy when they leave their socks on lmao. At this point everyone in class ran out. We were literally scared for our lives. The police took about 15 minutes to get here, and during this time he continued walking around screaming.

In last nights edition of the Detroit News it said that MSU was going to provide counseling for the students. I guess adult students are much more sensitive these days.

Close enough to my thoughts. I was thinking those thousand hits between 4:00am and 7:00am......

Maybe I'm jaded, but Calc 1 brought this on???
Dynamic Engineering Mechanics? Diff EQ? Calc 3?
That would have been more appropriate...

Oh come on.
You could see the guy was unarmed.
How many people have died because they were killed by a naked person?

It's the people who walk around clothed that you have to worry about...
