On a beautiful campus like TCU's, it's easy for students to feel safe. But incidents like the gunpoint robbery just one block south of Berry Street Friday night remind us how careful we must be when we leave the TCU bubble.

After the sexual assault that occurred in the fall of last year, the university formed the Safety and Security Committee to address safety on campus, according to a previous Daily Skiff article. Since then, the university has increased the number of street lights on campus as a response to the student request for better lighting.

The National Brain Tumor Society will hold the 5th Annual Dallas-Fort Worth Brain Tumor Walk Saturday at Trinity Park.

The event will include a five-kilometer walk, family activities and awards for top fundraisers, according to the event's website.

Registration will take place on site from 8 to 9 a.m., and activities will take place from 9 a.m. to noon, according to a press release.

Fees for registration are $50 for adults, $25 for children ages 6-17 and free for ages 5 and under.

One thing I hate about studying economics is that it makes it so easy for you to become a killjoy. While I do enjoy taking down a protectionist or arguing with someone about why minimum wage laws hurt the poor, there are some things even I wish weren't true.

Take sports stadiums, for example. I love sports and am a big fan of my hometown teams, but I can't help but think that building a big stadium is a bad idea for economic progress.

Every week, Chancellor Victor Boschini and several student leaders pick who they think will win top upcoming college football games in the Daily Skiff college football pick 'em challenge.

News Now sports director Chris Blake and Boschini are following closely behind at 32-13 and 31-14, respectively.

Students will have the opportunity to support an international aid organization through Race to Heal on Saturday.

The race is a 5K run supporting Doctors Without Borders, a nonprofit organization. Fundraisers such as Race to Heal provide health professionals in Doctors Without Borders with funding to purchase medicine and medical equipment necessary to care for patients in the nearly 60 countries they serve in, according to the organization's website.

The race will begin at 10 a.m. in front of the University Recreation Center, and a fundraiser at Red Cactus will follow.

Yo! Frozen Yogurt Lounge has crossed the unspoken advertisement barrier. The stand propped outside the storefront as well as the in-store screen reads, "Let's do lunch. Make Yo! Frozen Yogurt your new healthy, low-cost lunch alternative."

Not only is it incorrect to call skipping an actual lunch healthy, but it's also manipulative to advertise in this manner with the realization that an overwhelming amount of women students on campus suffer from body-weight issues.

Freshman Nick Standerfer loves movies, works out at the University Recreation Center regularly and enjoys making friends. Though Standerfer has Down syndrome, he said he is more similar to other students than some may think.

This October, the university promoted inclusiveness for those with the condition by celebrating Down Syndrome Awareness Month. In support, many students volunteered at KinderFrogs School, a school for pre-kindergarten and kindergarten students with Down syndrome, KinderFrogs administrative assistant Vivian Unger said.
