COLUMN: Ugg boots really are ugly with shorts

By Colleen Loggins

My favorite column:

The last one I wrote because I finally commented on all of the atrocious fashions of the UI student body.

Column with the most reader response:

The “Who’s your daddy? Not your boyfriend” column had the most interesting comments. I was actually called a “Puritan” for thinking it was weird to call your boyfriend “daddy.”

Column I would have liked to do:

I wanted to write a week-in-review column that on the bad reality TV shows that I watched that week. I didn’t really think of writing it until the last column, but then Missy Smith (fellow writer) said I should do a column on how Ugg boots look bad with shorts.

Coolest features story in the DI this semester:

I really liked the story about the drag queens because we had never really covered it before, and the pictures were awesome!

Best thing about features:

Everyone is really laid back, and we all get along really well. Meetings are actually fun!
