During Season 1, she majored in journalism and was involved in a long-distance relationship with Mike. She transferred to Hillman at the start of sophomore year, roommate of Denise Huxtable and Jaleesa Vinson.
During the summer of 1988, Maggie vacationed in Greece with Jaleesa, but soon disappeared after Season 1.
