No, no.. I'm sure it's not a dangerous situation. I think he's just a clingy individual with an innocent kind of creepiness. More than likely, he's merely desperate for a friend in college. I just don't want to be that person.
I'm not too worried... but getting rid of him permanently would be nice.

Tell me, how much do you actually know about this person? I'm not trying to criticize you, but in my experience with creepy individuals who try and be close to you and you don't want them to actually turn out to be pretty cool people once you get to know them.
If that doesn't work, then just do something that no one expects but is also weird. Not like the cutting thing or being honest, just do something random. Like make him feel like something very odd is going on, mismatch words or even make up a few of your own. In other words, become the weirdo of the class temporarily. If you do it right, he won't be able to make sense of it and thus drop the hopes of becoming close to you and back away. He may be reluctant to or come back, but just keep the engine going until you feel comfortable.
