That one guy still showing up 30 minutes early to class

Even though classes at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln have been going on for weeks, that one guy is still coming way too early for some reason.

Freshman Brock Schluter was spotted arriving at his 9:30 a.m. lecture at 8:55 a.m., a full 20 minutes before any other students entered the classroom. Even though it’s his first class of the day, Schluter won’t consider being late as an option.

Arriving at the near-empty classroom shortly after it was unlocked, Schluter entered the classroom quickly and quietly before taking a seat in the middle of the front row. He said this was “to get the most amount of information.”

“The way I see it, I have to maximize my information intake as efficiently as possible,” Schluter said, gathering his materials from his backpack. “The only logical solution to this is to make sure I get the best seat in the house.”

According to classmates, Schluter was seen making sure all of this mechanical pencils were in working condition and that he had enough paper to take notes on the day’s lectures.

Aside from gathering his materials for the lecture, other students observed Schluter not doing anything at all, not even glancing at his phone or eating a quick breakfast. In fact, he has often been observed staring ahead to the front and occasionally to the ceiling.

“I’m really not sure what to make of this guy,” said Alexis Cogan, a student in Schluter’s class. “I went in early to talk with the professor, and he was just sitting in the front row, twiddling his thumbs.”

Other students reported that Schluter would stare at every student that entered the classroom, never breaking eye contact until they took their seats.

“What does he think he’ll get out of this?” said James Connor, another classmate. “It’s honestly kind of unnerving.”
