EXCUSED

Give excused absences for the game
COMMENTARY

Tonight the Horned Frogs will put their undefeated record on the line against No. 25 Louisville at Amon Carter Stadium. It will be on national television and will be the only NCAA football game on in the country.

Allowing the game to be on a Wednesday night means that TCU is going to get a lot of attention. But for some students, the timing is unfortunate because it means they can’t attend.

Additions to C-USA not good for TCU football

COMMENTARY

This year has been one of ecstasy for the TCU football fan. The Frogs are the top team in Texas and people are finally starting to take notice. But on campus, there have been skeptics at every turn. Many remember the San Jose State debacle in 2000, and it takes more than five years of success to undo 50 years of struggles. The prevailing thought has been that “we’ll screw it up somewhere along the way.”

COMMENTARY

There is a reason I don't keep a gun close to my bed, aside from the fact it isn't allowed per my apartment lease. I know if I had a firearm within reach, I would have long ago slammed a .38 slug into the glowing green face of the critter that sits on my bed-side table.

That critter, of course, is an alarm clock.
Some take longer to adjust
COMMENTARY

It has taken me three months this semester to realize there is a major difference between being a college student and a university student. Coming to TCU as a transfer student made me realize that a difference exists. Think of the college student as solely the academic half of the university student — without the purple pride or the Horned Frog identity.
