Line 14: ==Summary== The Morgendorffers visit [[Doug ~~(College~~and ~~Bored)~~Susan\|some]] ~~[[Susan (College Bored)\|~~friends]] who are preparing their daughter [[Ramona]] for the SAT tests (despite their daughter being a toddler) to ensure she'll attend the right college. After the visit [[Helen Morgendorffer\|Helen]] and [[Jake Morgendorffer\|Jake]] decide to enroll [[Daria Morgendorffer\|Daria]] and [[Quinn Morgendorffer\|Quinn]] in a college prep course, to the annoyance of both girls. The prep course is held at [[Lawndale High]] and includes several freshman and sophomore students. The instructor coaches them on how to take exams and invites them to consider what they want out of college. Students daydream about their college future life: [[Kevin Thompson\|Kevin]] imagines himself as a successful QB; [[Brittany Taylor\|Brittany]] imagines receiving her diploma while walking on a model runway; [[Jane Lane\|Jane ]]imagines herself a successful artist, having ditched college; Quinn imagines herself being the roommate/object of desire for three good-looking male students; Daria imagines being invited to go to grad school while still a freshman (however, even in her fantasy, the rationale for the invitation disappoints her). Line 53: [[Alternate universe]] versions of this story include [http://thepaperpusher.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=33319 Homeless Daria 3: A College Try Gives Me Blisters] by [[RX-87]] and [http://thepaperpusher.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=464468#p464468 Mad Dog's Legacy 3: The Old Middleton Try] by [[Hyrin]]. The events Brittany refers to at the end are depicted in [[Kristen Bealer]]'s "[[College Disorientation]]". Daria writing papers for the undergrads in this episode has been used in some fanfiction as a possible side occupation for Daria, exploring her mercenary side. Examples include: [[Daria's Season of Good Will]] and [[Out of the Slushpile]], both by [[Nemo Blank]]. [[Middleton College]] would later be used or referenced in some fanfiction works. Jane's fantasy of having an loft where she can work on her artworks was explored further by [[Wouter Jaegers]] in his [[Dariarotica]] story [[Brushed off]] in which Jane made it a reality, using her loft not only as a workshop but also as a living space. ==Transcript== Line 68 ⟶ 67: * [https://sites.google.com/site/dariatranscripts/103-college-bored Transcript] at [[Daria Transcripts]] * [http://dariaphans.blogspot.com/2007/03/it-kind-of-sucked-review-of-college.html “‘It Kind of Sucked’: A Review of ‘College Bored’”] by [[CINCGREEN]] at the [[Daria Fandom Blog]], March 17, 2007 * [https://archiveofourown.org/works/17623430/chapters/41550302 Episode Analysis] by [[WellTemperedClavier]] {{succession box \| title=[[List of Daria Episodes\|Daria Episodes]]<br/>"College Bored," Season 1, Episode 3 \| before=[[The Invitation]] (102) \| after=[[Cafe Disaffecto]] \| year=(103)}}
