It looks like Hugh Jackman is supporting higher education in Indiana.
The Broadway and Hollywood star was at Ball State University in Muncie on Monday.
He visited the Letterman building and took photos with students, according to Cardinal Media.
Why was Hugh Jackman at Ball State?
The two-time Tony Award winner didn’t appear to have any public engagements. But love may have lured the Wolverine to the campus.
The recently-divorced Jackman is the beau of Sutton Foster, his “The Music Man” costar, and a theatre instructor at Ball State this semester.
Sutton, who starred in TV Land’s “Younger” and also has a couple of Tony Awards, holds an honorary doctorate from Ball State.
