Line 1:
'''Middleton College''' is a small, liberal arts college in [[Lawndale]] where [[Jake Morgendorffer]] and [[Helen Barksdale]] met and began dating during the late 1960s. They graduated in the Class of '72 ("[[The Daria Database]]"). The campus is revisited in "[[College Bored]]," and is referred to a few times through the series. [[Coyote Yeager]] and [[Willow Yeager]] were presumably at Middleton as well, as the four
[["Mad Dog" Morgendorffer]] paid for Jake to go there, when Jake would've likely been drafted for the [[Vietnam War]] otherwise - or, worse, dropped out to become a hippie. ("[[The Daria Diaries]]") Mad Dog may have thought Middleton, due to its religious background, would stop Jake dropping out (oops).
Line 10:
Other students from the Class of '72 are shown in "Database's" copy of Middleton Musings to be a bit rubbish: "L.A. transplant" Marjorie Kurtis is noted to have "given up her acting/food management careers" to become a self-published author (The Art of Acting is her first), Doug Preston is working behind the counter at the Turquoise and Trinkets store in Santa Fe, Nancy "Woodsy" Woods has passed the bar almost twenty years after graduating Middleton Law in 1979, Lad Duncan is a snowboarding instructor.
When Daria and her family visited the college, the current Bursaw was a corrupt, dodgy man: he refers parents who need loans to a "family business" who have "very agreeable terms" and have "a variety of interests"...
