Safe Cold winter
weather stormed into the Dallas/Fort Worth area, beginning with
the sudden chill that plunged through the area Tuesday. The afternoon
brought sleet to the Metroplex with temperatures dropping to the
low 30s — and wind chill temperatures were even lower. The
National Weather Service issued a winter storm watch for Tuesday
and Wednesday evening as the change in weather is predicted to include
low temperatures, rain, sleet and even flakes of snow. |

and consumers looking for the best deals while shopping for gifts.
Most students are looking forward to the awaited vacation days ahead,
the gathering of family and lavish meals. This is how Americans
will typically celebrate the winter holidays. |

over two months since the terrorist attacks in New York City and
Washington. In that time, we have heard reactions from nearly every
political, social and cultural group that you can think of. However,
one group I did not hear from as much were international students
here at TCU, so I decided to ask them myself. Many I asked in person,
the rest I sent e-mails. Below are the questions, followed by a
summary of their responses. |
It
is time for the college generation to grow up It’s the
bittersweet symphony of life, growing old. Every generation deals
with it in their own neurotic, peculiar way. For us (Generation
Z), it will be perhaps more difficult than any generation before.
