Campus tours should be more personal

We’ve all seen those massive groups touring campus early Monday mornings. Hundreds and hundreds of people trying to listen to tour guides as they stand in front of the library and the chapel.

Liberation for Iraqi people doesn’t end their problems

The streets of Baghdad are in chaos. There are fires, looting and mounds of trash on the streets. Basic needs like medical care, clean water and electricity are not being met. Although Saddam has been driven from power, the Iraqi people are still suffering.

Life at TCU was well worth
the trip

COMMENTARY

If I was asked four years ago what would be the one thing college would teach me, I would have responded, “to enhance my journalistic craft.” And although I will agree, compared to the very first feature article I wrote on an upcoming musician named Dot Allison (I know, who?), I really have enhanced that craft.
Meaning still to be found
COMMENTARY

It’s difficult to write objectively about my college experience while I’m still enclosed within the university’s borders. I still live in the on-campus apartments with their Holiday Inn-esque furniture and paper-thin walls. I haven’t yet packed up my four years worth of accumulated junk or walked across the stage to receive that coveted piece of paper.
Life in ‘Real World’ is uncertain
COMMENTARY

Minus an F4 tornado, a shooting at Wedgwood Baptist Church, the fiasco of Election 2000, the tragedy of Sept. 11, 2001, a War on Terror, a War in Iraq, an economic recession and a record unemployment rate — all things considered — I might not have had much to write home about.
