I wanted to use this strip to make it clear why Daria and Eric happen to have a class together.  It's not as much of a coincidence as you might think -- they've both just entered the engineering major, and like a lot of majors, it has a huge introductory class that all (or at least most) of its freshmen take at once.  I figured it would make a lot more sense if they were in the same class of over five hundred students than if they wound up together in the same small class of, say, ten.
