Togging out the office like this 'may be a bit over the top' but was in part a reaction to moving to the new place, which lacks the human proportions and lawn views of the old law building on the main campus." — Wendy Tuohy; The Colourful Arm of the Law; The Age (Melbourne, Australia); Nov 15, 2004; "We wore our best surfing togs: light blue Levi cords, Pendleton shirts, Converse sneakers." — Tim Ryan; Big Waves, Big Screen; Honolulu Star-Bulletin (Hawaii); Oct 24, 2004.
