Liberal Arts is close enough, I guess.

I suspect that a good many of you are geeky enough (English degrees or no) to get all three jokes in panel four.
(But shouldn't it be "hir'd"?)

The gooshyfood is fresh and Galen bites
it down. But when it sits o'erlong, the dish
becomes a thing to spurn. He snubs and slights
until it is refreshed, to grant his wish.

The one thing that bothered me about that comic is that the woman behind the counter should have known immediately whether or not he was a student. Smith is a woman's college, and even though they may be likely to have a handful of male students spending their junior year there, all of the female students would know who they were. At least that's how it worked at Mount Holyoke.

Her T-shirt doesn't actually say "Smith" on it, though it does say "Smith" on the posted notice.

Her T-shirt says "Smif College", and she says "We don't usually hire non-students", so the assumption that she is a Smith College is student is extremely safe.
