These days, it seems like there are prescription drugs for every ailment one can imagine.

Freedom to wake up whenever you want, freedom to go to class if you want to or not and freedom to decorate your room however you want.Each of the 2,989 students who live in TCU's residence halls can be their own interior decorator - the challenge is doing that on a college budget.

There has been little interest in the Picnic-To-Go program since the program's launch Oct. 2, says the marketing manager for TCU Dining Services.As of now, no students have ordered or purchased the Picnic-To-Go packages, which, Dining Services marketing manager Legia Abato said, is mainly because there has not been great weather.

Broken elevators, unreliable Internet connection and constant construction: These are some of the problems students living in the GrandMarc at Westberry Place said they have encountered since the complex opened in August."The first weekend I was here I got stuck on the elevator for three hours," said sophomore marketing major Mark Aughinbaugh.
