Female Professor

female Early in the life of the comic we had already created several male professors. However, what we did not have were some female professors. So in the interest of gender equity (and romantic interest for our lead), we added her.

Female Professor, as far as we can tell, teaches humanities at the university. She is the nice grandmotherly type. She is also perhaps the only character who has better moral character than Professor Hobo. Often she finds herself in disbelief at the world around her, and we assume this is how many of the women we know feel when in our company.

Serfs Up

Serfs Up

While perhaps a bit of an exaggeration, it is fairly accurate to compare working at a university to being part of a feudal serf system. This was one of those strips that we received far more feedback from professors than from students. It also established Mr. Mittens first real activity as head of the faculty senate. Many more shenanigans would follow from his administrative work.

Dr. Bones makes a cameo in this strip, along with the Masked Professor and the old science professor. It became a running gag to reuse certain characters to fill out backgrounds.

Bonafide T. Gator

bonafide What is the most disturbing idea we have ever had for a character? There’s lots of characters who never quite make it into a strip, but here was one that was simply too twisted not to include. The sad part? Few ever recognize that Bonafide is a commentary on judging by looks.

Bonafide is a gator on a mission—a mission to baby-sit children. The problem? Everyone recognizes that he is a gator and assumes he just secretly wants to eat their children the moment they leave them. But Bonafide has a “garontee” he will not, and he actually means it!

Jabez

jabez Let it be known that both of us are Christians. However, having been in college for a tad under a decade now, we have come to despise at times the over zealous religious nuts who barrage anyone and everyone. Jabez is representative of this scary campus group.

Named by his parents for the religious figure, Jabez is involved with the Jolly 4 Jesus (not affiliated with Jolly 4 Vishnu) campus ministry group on campus. His intentions are truly good, but unfortunately he makes even the most religious person cringe at sight.

Tom

tom What does one do when college is simply an inconvenience from listening to your bootleg Phish and Grateful Dead concerts? Tom joined the Tri-Lambdas. A bit out of it at any given moment, Tom can usually be found wondering around the background of fraternity events.

While he may not seem the most dedicated of students, Tom is actually studying to be a workplace safety engineer…when he goes to class. He lives alone in the frat house, and no one else dares enter his room alone.
