Episode Summary
 

With graduation looming, Lawndale High seniors scramble to make their college plans. Daria and Tom decide to apply to Bromwell while Jane gets rejected from several art colleges, making her think about life without a degree in art. But the pressures of finals, graduation, and college begin to wear on friendships, even threatening them in some cases. Meanwhile, Jodie applies to an African American college, despite her parents' disagreement; Quinn gets a part-time job; and the cheerleaders eagerly look forward to their future at Great Prairie State.

Episode Quotes
 
Jane: To college. I can't wait. What do you think we'll find when we get there?
Daria: Hmm. That the students are shockingly ignorant, the professors self-centered and corrupt, and the entire system geared solely to the pursuit of funding?
Jane: Hmm, yes. You know that thing I said about you getting soft?
Daria: Yeah?
Jane: I take it back.
 
Jane: What about you? Still thinking about ... (in an accent) Bromwell?
Daria: They don't really talk like that there ... I hope. Anyway, I'm applying because it's an outstanding university, not because the students engage in the rectal transport of steel rods.
Jane: The Equestrian Club must be in constant pain.
 
Daria's graduation speech: Um ... thank you. I'm not much for public speaking, or much for speaking, or, come to think of it, much for the public. And I'm not very good at lying. So let me just say that, in my experience, high school sucks. If I had to do it all over again, I'd have started advanced placement classes in preschool so I could go from eighth grade straight to college. However, given the unalterable fact that high school sucks, I'd like to add that if you're lucky enough to have a good friend and a family that cares, it doesn't have to suck quite as much. Otherwise, my advice is: stand firm for what you believe in, until and unless logic and experience prove you wrong; remember, when the emperor looks naked, the emperor is naked; the truth and a lie are not "sort of the same thing"; and there is no aspect, no facet, no moment of life that can't be improved with pizza. Thank you.
 
Jane: You're getting soft around the edges, Morgendorffer.
Daria: Maybe, or maybe you've got glaucoma.
 
Ms. Li: Thank you Jodie Landon, valedictorian of the graduating class of Lawndale High. And remember parents, your child doesn't need to be a current student for us to accept your generous donations.
 
Trent: I don't really think you're a sell-out.
Jane: Well, that's not exactly an apology, but you know what they say about beggars.
Trent: That they'll only spend it on booze?
Jane: Nevermind.
 
Trent: Um, why do you want to go to art college? You're already an artist.
Jane: I know, but I want to be a starving artist so I need to ring up more debt.
 
Jane: Behold, Daria. The group dynamic you crave so much.
Daria: I suppose pulling out a can of mace right now would be considered bad form.
 
Andrew Landon: You call that a tax cut? I've seen haircuts more drastic.
