These are the people in your neighborhood.

Mike
One of the incoming freshman class, Mike was totally unprepared for...well, pretty much everything. Not
least of which his wild roommate Joe. Mostly he's just trying to make it through the year with his sanity
intact and maybe pass a few classes along the way. So far, so good.

Joe
Mike's sophomoric roommate. Ever the wild one, Joe's long-term goal has less to do with earning grades
and more to do with becoming the state cocktail-wiener-eating champion. Has been known to try to use hangovers
as excuses to get out of classes.

Jen
Unlike fellow freshman Mike, Jen is the go-getter. The overachiever. The one who's probably going to burn out
by her second year. Currently bucking for a quadruple major: a B.A., a B.S., an M.B.A., and an M.R.S. Everyone
thinks—okay, knows—she's crazy but nobody's got the guts to say so to her face, except Trisha, whom
she doesn't believe anyway.

Trisha
Jen's roomie. Technically a senior but nowhere near ready to graduate; she was forced to change majors her
junior year when the school dropped the program she was in. Having been here three years, she knows the ropes.
She can tell you which professors to avoid and which cafeteria meals are potential health hazards. A bit of a
cynic, but not unpleasantly so.

Craig
The strip's token geek and video game enthusiast. A friend and, occasionally, MajorDeth 2 opponent of
Mike. Source of my own quirky brand of geek humor.

Ashe
Nobody really knows much about Ashe—a fact that nobody particularly minds, including her. She hangs out
with Joe from time to time and lives right down the hall from Jen and Trisha. To their consternation.
