Maybe, Just maybe…if she did that in HS she wouldn’t be having such a hard time in College…and again, this is a mirror into who Tiffany used to be, she should get an “a-ha” moment out of all this and hopefully some personal growth.
Especially when you have a plan like Stef, wherein she plans on being a housewife with four kids. Nothing wrong with that, but a college education is not really a requisite for that plan.
Ok, this is getting tired real fast. Tiffany blows extra money buying clothes instead of saving. Grades are suffering but now the devil is telling her to goof off. She already busts her rump working and making ends meet. In REAL life, this sort of BS happens in Freshman year, not 2and or 3rd. Not unless the author wants Tiffany to move back home or become a stripper to pay for college.
The eternal internal struggle that every individual fights: wants vs needs. I can tell from the look on tiffany’s face that she hates being an adult and all the boring and mundane responsibilities that come with it.
What does she do? If she studies and works hard maybe she can become strong and able to detach from daddy and Eiffel horribles and take charge of her life, but if not she might be drawn into further dependence. Somehow I think it will all work out.
They need to rename this strip something other than “Luann”. The stories are never about her any more, and even when she shows up, it’s only for a week or so and then we’re back to the more interesting characters.
I can’t judge. I remember when my college opened the pub. Which gave me a choice between going to Symbolic Logic class or drinking beer and playing video games with my friends. Guess which choice won.
If Greg had used Gunther in cosplay costumes for Tiff’s personification of good and evil their messages might have more equivocation. Besides, Gun (ugh) with a halo and horns would be more humorous.
Stay the course, Tiffany (pun most definitely intended). While it is true that “college isn’t just studying, y’know,” it’s also true that studying and graduating are the primary goals. The student union will be there after the work is done.
Stef is only half right. Tiff already knows, but networking is really important, especially to a ‘business major’. The trick is to schmooze with the others likely to be upwardly mobile and not just party folk.
An interesting piece has either been missed or not discussed; Tiffany has learned to study. We didn’t know how she did last term/semester but we now have a positive out of it (passed). The fun part is going to be seeing if Tiffany stays in study/work mode or tries to balance study/work with social time or if social time takes over.
Here we go… Will Tiffany ruin her college career wasting time with Stefani or will she become stronger and resist to the inviting proposal? Or maybe follow Stefani will make her learn something important? I hope she will stay in her room and study. But….
Compromise, Tiffany….. FINISH studying for today FIRST, then go to the Union…. if Stephani is still there, fine, if not, meet some other folks…. or have fun on your own.
Steph is no friend. Tiff told her she’s way behind and can’t take time off, but Steph blew it off and is tempting Tiff to fall back into high-school habits.
Stef here looks like either an ad for a housecleaning service (usually seen on the side of a van) or a female robotics project created by students in the school of Engineering.
I’ve read this comic strip for more than a few years. If she backslides now, it’s as if she were an alcoholic taking that first drink of alcohol. She will not know when to stop. Stay the course. Finish your classes. Spring Break is next month. Don’t conk out now.
This sort of conundrum/dichotomy about what one WANTS to do versus what one SHOULD do is of course, a classic. I (probably we all) struggle with this each and every day. While the struggles of this sort I have dealt with (and continue to deal with) are too many to mention, I can say that for me…. one thing that has helped a bit:
Get up early…… or even earlier….. to get the “good” things you may not want to do off your plate. Get all the tough but essential things done early. For me, more fully realizing this has done me a world of good…. and kept me sane (enough) that at SOME POINT in a day, I can relax and COMFORTABLY indulge at least a LITTLE BIT of my devilish/selfish wants.
Well I think the degree , and maybe the only degree, that Tiffany is gonna get is her “MRS” degree, so hanging with Steph and meeting a few of those unmarried eligible jocks she slobbers over, might be a step in the right direction. And I think it was nice of Steph to ask. Not so sure Tiffany would have done the same.
Tiff, do NOT listen to the trophy girlfriend. You’ve been doing SO good! She only has one goal in life and it’s the opposite of yours. DON’T DO IT!!!!!
This hurts my eyes! Please, GE, I know you’re incapable of depicting modern day college life, but at least do some research on what young adults are wearing in 2020!
Do it, Tiff. What could possibly get worse for you? And maybe hanging with Bird-girl will motivate you to trim down from your new “plus-size” to your previous and IMO more pleasing size….
I believe that Greg has two different lights for his drawing board. Bright for most things, and “unfavorable” for Tiffany. Now, we’ve got Steph: looking like a Barbie doll with the body structure of a wasp. She may be thin, but Greg makes sure that she throws shade over Tiff.

I guess the bow WASN’T just part of the cheerleading uniform. It seems to be a part of Stefi’s everyday dress.
Or maybe the bow is permanently attached to her head, and she can’t take it off. :D :P
