Line 19:
Stacy Rowe was a freshman (and later sophomore and junior) at [[Lawndale High]], and secretary of the [[Fashion Club]]; a quartet of fashion-obsessed teenage girls who held regular meetings to discuss various facets of the fashion world and, in their own words, "solve crimes against fashion." She was the first person to meet and greet [[Quinn Morgendorffer]] in the first episode, saying "you look cool!".
 
Stacy was constantly insecure to the point of neurosis and would hyperventilate or burst into tears when bad things happened to her... or even over ''minor'' issues, like the time she thought she was wearing stretchpants ("[[Road Worrier]]").

Line 25:
Stacy was perceived as "the weakest link" of the Fashion Club by club president [[Sandi Griffin]] and was sometimes humiliated and verbally abused by her. While she viewed the other Club members as friends, they often seemed to ignore her: in "[[Fair Enough]]", her mass-crying over being stood up was not only ignored, [[Tiffany Blum-Deckler]] actually asked if that meant the guy was available. The idea of being excluded or on the outs with the club was one of the things that set her off: in "[[Is It Fall Yet?]]", she utterly collapses when it comes out that Sandi and Tiffany didn't tell her something.
 
She constantly sought the attention and approval of fellow Fashion Club member Quinn and would often side with Quinn when her friend butted heads with Sandi Griffin before getting bullied into taking Sandi's side. In a memorable scene from "[[Gifted]]," Stacy completely relinquishes her own tastes so they become exactly like Quinn's, a change that Quinn didn't approve of and made her leave the house. It is shown on that episode that Stacy looks up to Quinn and considers her to be her best friend, sometimes to a point that even Quinn cannot tolerate.

("[[OfThe HumanDaria BondingDatabase]],") However, when Quinn is only allowed to invite one friend for sleepover in "[[Of Human Bonding]]", Stacy is her first choice.
 
Her academic ability and intellect was mediocre: in "[[Daria Dance Party]]", she has to be reminded that an essay on Hemingway for English class refers to the writer and not [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mariel_Hemingway actress Mariel Hemingway]; her P-STAT in "[[Is It Fall Yet?]]" was only 940 (though this was the second-highest in the Fashion Club) and she made very dumb comments when being tutored,; and in "[[Lucky Strike]]" she's horrified at the thought of a 200-word essay and copies Sandi's essay ''even though it's being handed to the same teacher''. Notably, "IIFY?" has tutorher express the fear that "I'm such an idiot. I'll never get anywhere in life!". Tutor [[David Sorenson]] does note that Stacywhile she's not doing very well, she is ''trying'' to learn, evenunlike thoughthe it'srest clearlyof notthe going wellClub. Whether further sessions would've helped her is unknown, as she had a freakout soon after and that put an end to them.
