This Economics professor certainly knows how to make an entrance – and a point

Professor Matthew Pittman of the University of Tennessee, Knoxville knows how to make a point – and an entrance.

Watch how he took it right up to the wire when his Economics class almost got to take advantage of the lecturer lateness rule to get an early dart.

That sigh from the class came directly from the soul. TikTok was here for it. This is a little of what people have been saying.

“Being an econ major is not about having fun” right after he came in on a skateboard is crazy.

I know he was waiting outside the door the whole time just to roll in like that.

As an Econ major I felt it when said “giving up on your dreams and making a mediocre salary”. I am seen.

Man saw the timer at 8 minutes and knew he had 7 minutes to find a skateboard.

Imagine your think you are about to be class free but then you see your professor come in on a skateboard last second and give a quiz.

High schools teacher be like “they’ll never let you off this easily in university!” I just saw a professor pull up to class on a skateboard and a youtube intro HELLO.
