 Don't hate beautiful women
 This article is in response to Zach Sonnenberg's hatred of sorority life. I happen to be an Alpha Phi from the wonderful Chico State University and have been wearing "big sunglasses" for years now. I only started to wear them because it covered up my scratched cornea (which had a heinous patch over it), but one day my best friend Kelli told me that they looked totally good and bought a pair for herself. Since that day, we've pretty much been more popular than Jesus here at Chico. Anyway, my point is that just because a variety of fashion is worn out of necessity and becomes popular doesn't mean that was the intention. Don't hate, appreciate.
