College Bored: Difference between revisions

Line 20:
All students have to visit a college as part of the course, so Jake and Helen enthusiastically decide to take their daughters to their ''alma mater'', [[Middleton College]]. When they visit the campus a few days later, they are greeted by [[Heather]], their tour guide. The four quickly separate as Helen and Jake want to check his old room and Quinn wants to check the fraternities and sororities.
 
Helen and Jake reminisce in his old room, whose student occupants seem only to hang out, listen to loud music, surf the web and pay no attention whatsoever to the visitors. Suddenly remembering the sexual mores of college students, Helen rushes out in a panic, searching for Quinn, asking students of her daughter's whereabouts and posting notices. Helen's searches are fruitless and she succeeds only in being harassed by male students who are pledging fraternities. Meanwhile, Jake visits the loan office, where heand is informedconfused ofby all the highfees, ofbut collegethe feesAssistant andBursar offeredis informationready onto possibledirect studenthim loansto from,a of"family" allbusiness places,with a candy''wide storevariety'' of interests that offer really good loans to people like him.

Daria and Heather end up in Heather's room, where Daria can see college student life firsthand: watching [[Sick, Sad World]] and, according to Heather, working a stupid job and asking the parents for money. When Heather receives her term paper by mail, full of mistakes, Daria turns it into an opportunity to make fast money, as she offers to rewrite or correct papers for the ignorant and/or lazy college students.
