Passage of time in QC...
AprilArcus:
I have, of course.
AprilArcus:
Charted out 1602-1951 / Late March, April, Early May by using Dora's dialogue in 1645 to place it six weeks prior to 1978 (which takes place the day after Tai's graduation party). Another surprisingly tight fit, yet free of internal contradictions. I think Jeph must be working from a document similar to the one we're reconstructing here.
Faye and Angus dated for just shy of five months.
Thrudd:
Well Tolkien used it and My first big time world builder still uses it [Ed Greenwood].
Heck, my favourite Horror-Mystery Campaign directors use it just so nobody has an aneurysm or a heart attack [Fellowship of the White Star] even with all the timey-whimey oddities for the players at the tables.
Looking at this I can wager that there is a whiteboard with story arcs mapped out and some plot points nailed down [relatively]

So this must be the spring semester of Tai's final year.
I'm now fully persuaded by the long timeline hypothesis. 48 is autumn, Amanda's visit in 164-185 happens over winter break, and Ellen is back in class by 247, with 1302/1311 time-skipping from early october into mid-January.

I felt pretty strongly I was right. I'm glad you found some corroborating evidence. It is also a reminder that you really do need to read every strip as you're never sure where a reference will fall. Basically, you rock. I've unfortunately been far too busy to make any more progress from the front-end of the comic.
Method of Madness:
It could be her junior year, if two years have passed since then.
