− | + | '''Miss Lenhart''' is the go-to character when [[Randall]] needs a teacher. She has white hair of shoulder length, and is thus a named version of [[Blondie]], like [[Rob]] is a named version of [[Cueball]]. She may or may not represent the same character from comic to comic. | |

+ | Miss Lenhart has only been named two times where she actually appears. The first time she is both drawn and mentioned by name is in [[499: Scantron]], and the only other time (so far by comic 1731) is in [[1050: Forgot Algebra]]. But her name was used before for a not-shown teacher in [[135: Substitute]], which is why it makes sense to call the math teacher in [[263: Certainty]] Miss Lenhart. That would thus make it the first time she appeared as a character in a comic. | ||
− | + | Her family name is again the only thing used in [[416: Zealous Autoconfig]], although there it does not directly say that she is a teacher. While school is mentioned, it is for her children. Thus the name is first connected directly to the blonde teacher in her fifth "appearance" after she was also drawn in [[442: xkcd Loves the Discovery Channel]]. | |
− | |||
− | + | Later, her name is used again without her being present, except on the phone in [[704: Principle of Explosion]]. Here, she is Mrs. Lenhart. It is possible that this character is the mother of Miss Lenhart. Or, because she here obviously has a son, she may have been married after she was originally named Miss. This is the second time she has been mentioned to be a mother. Both Blondie and one of the other named Blondie-like characters [[Mrs. Roberts]] are shown to be mothers. | |
− | + | Her name is mentioned in total five times. So the other comics with Miss Lenhart refer to a teacher with her appearance, just like [[Megan]] only has been named a few times, but is still used to describe the general dark-haired woman. However, Miss Lenhart must have long blonde hair, so a teacher with her hair in a ponytail, like in [[982: Set Theory]], is not Miss Lenhart but [[Ponytail]], even though the teaching method reminds of the one in [[1724: Proofs]] with Miss Lenhart. | |

− | + | She is also depicted teaching subjects not clearly mathematics, as in [[1519: Venus]], where she teaches bogus, or in [[803: Airfoil]], where it looks like a physics class. | |
− | + | But mainly it seems that she is teaching undergraduate classes. It is therefore not clear if any mathematician looking like Blondie is also a representation of Miss Lenhart. But if that were the case, these comics may also reference Miss Lenhart: | |
+ | :[[435: Purity]] | ||
+ | :[[599: Apocalypse]]. | ||
+ | But so far they have not been included, as Miss Lenhart as Blondie is not clearly depicted as a teacher (or with name) in these comics. | ||
