Obviously the dude he stabbed the professor is likely a head case, but other than something extreme, what does one person do that makes another person think "I want to stab that fricker to death"?






Didn't approve his thesis, wouldn't write a letter of recommendation, and your academic career is over. Academic advisors can make or break you at the graduate level. Doesn't excuse what he did, but that is probably the motive. And yes it has happened before. IIRC a similar incident took place at UAB a while back.

Happened at the University of South Carolina. Someone came into the Public Health building and shot a professor.

and to think, if that professor exercised his 2nd amendment rights, he would still be alive


Even if you have a gun, if you don't see it coming there's nothing that you can do.

Sounds like the student became de mentor.
