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?" (Tenured Radical) |
