UD is...
"Salty." (Scott McLemee)
"Unvarnished." (Phi Beta Cons)
"Splendidly splenetic." (Culture Industry)
"Except for University Diaries, most academic blogs are tedious."
(Rate Your Students)
"I think of Soltan as the Maureen Dowd of the blogosphere,
except that Maureen Dowd is kind of a wrecking ball of a writer,
and Soltan isn't. For the life of me, I can't figure out her
politics, but she's pretty fabulous, so who gives a damn?"

NOBODY SASSES

The blog Nobody Sasses a Girl in Glasses is extremely charming. An undergrad at the University of Chicago chronicles - in sparkling prose - her not very pleasant internship summer in Washington DC.

U.C., D.C. -- these are very much UD’s sorts of coordinates, and she’s intrigued by this blogger’s take on them. As with another wonderful undergraduate blog, Slightly Critical, UD commends this one to you for its energy, humor, and seriousness.
