Heroic Football Player Attends Class

In a brave display of dedication to his university, Texas A&M University wide receiver and student Michael Pearson attended 11:30 a.m. Monday/Wednesday class. It was reported that students in Dr. Anders Howardson’s POLS 207 class were shocked to see Pearson in attendance.

Freshman Chelsey Ingram, who posted a blurry shot of him sitting four rows behind her on her Snapchat story, was reportedly excited to see Pearson. “He just walked right in and sat down in the back row with a single piece of paper and a pen,” Ingram said. “I’m so impressed he made it to class after how hard he played last semester!”

Students were reportedly trying to act as casual as possible and refrained from speaking directly to Pearson, who was put in for a single play during the last game. “I was just so shocked,” said junior Brian Wesley. “It was really considerate of him to be such a good Ag and come to class. I wonder what he’s studying!”

Pearson, who is pursuing a degree in kinesiology, had no comments to make, as his headphones were in for the entirety of class and he did not converse with any classmates.
