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?"

'The Colonialist...

... is a blog concerning student life at the George Washington University. We do not promise to be unbiased or even relevant. We aim to provide GW students with information, opinions and stories they will enjoy. But most importantly, we aim to never be The Hatchet.'


Sure, UD'd have written we aim never to be The Hatchet in order to avoid the split infinitive, but their way will do. The Hatchet, UD reminds you, is GW's official student newspaper. The Colonialist is an unofficial blog about GW life. It's only just gotten started, and it looks promising. There's some funny stuff, and there's some serious stuff, especially, at the moment, about Swastika Girl (see post below this one for details).
