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. Student body president Marlon Figueroa had the highest score last week, going 4-1. Sports editor Madison Pelletier has the lead with the highest cumulative score at 33-12. 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.

After finishing the 2009-2010 season with a 95-85 loss to BYU in the quarterfinals of the Mountain West Conference Championships, the TCU men's basketball team will have a new look entering its regular season opener.

The most notable roster difference is the number of transfers acquired during the offseason who are now part of the Horned Frogs squad.

Guards J.R. Cadot and Sammy Yeager and forward Andre Clark, all juniors, signed National Letters of Intent in April after finding success during their junior college years at their previous schools.

The women's swimming & diving team will take on the Air Force Falcons today at the University Rec Center Natatorium. On Saturday, it will compete again against San Diego State. On the men's team, junior Laszlo Gyurko was named the Mountain West Conference Swimmer of the Week Tuesday after earning two top five finishes in a national competition last week.

When: 5 p.m. today against Air Force, 1 p.m. Saturday against San Diego State

When the TCU men's basketball team takes the court on Nov. 12 against Jackson State University in the first official game of the 2010-2011 season, most TCU students will probably be more focused on the Nov. 13 football game against San Diego State University.

However TCU students should be prepared for a more successful basketball season than in years past. From a talent and athleticism perspective, this looks to be the best team in the last few years, and certainly the best of the Jim Christian era.

The War on Terror will come to define our generation. It will do so much like World War II and the Cold War defined previous generations. It will define our values, the way we think, our worldviews and...
