The student publications committee selected the fall 2010 Daily Skiff editor-in-chief, advertising manager, TCU News Now news director and Image editor-in-chief Friday.

Junior Libby Davis, the newly chosen fall 2010 Skiff editor-in-chief, said she has several goals to improve the Daily Skiff, such as incorporating more student and faculty opinion into the paper.

The selection committee is made up of journalism faculty, non-journalism faculty, and journalism and non-journalism students, said Davis, a news-editorial journalism and history major.

It is unfortunate that during a period called "CommUNITY Week" intended to bring diverse groups together, Peace Action created an exhibit clearly meant to increase rather than reduce divisiveness. Presenting the destruction of Palestinian villages by Israel in 1948 without also stating that destruction occurred on both sides as the result of a war initiated by the invasion of Israel by Eqypt, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq and Jordan seems to be a deliberate disregard for history that is wrong in general and specifically inappropriate in an academic setting.

CommUNITY week at TCU has gone full circle this year and has truly proved that diversity of opinion and tolerance of differing perspectives are welcome on our campus. With the Tunnel of Oppression representing...

A flag display arranged this week on the Campus Commons detailing the destruction of Palestinian villages in the 1948 Arab-Israeli War has raised objections from the university's Jewish organization.

Hillel president Daniel Zidell, a sophomore pre-major, said the university's Peace Action group flag display neglected to mention certain facts in its remembrance of Palestinian villages destroyed by Israel in 1948, such as the fact that Israel was defending itself from Arab attacks.

University students, staff members and Fort Worth residents are participating in the creation of a community garden in the Fairmount Historic District as part of the Fort Worth Sustainability Task Force, a group created in January to investigate ways to ensure that the city infrastructure and resources can keep up with city growth.

The first community garden, located at Fifth Avenue and West Maddox Avenue, is less than three miles from campus.

It is no secret that athletes get paid millions of dollars to play their sport and that seems a little obsessive.

There are many other ways, and many more productive ways for the money to be spent.

Teachers, professors, nurses and other professions that are taking a hard hit from the dwindling economy should get increases to their salaries while athletes' are reduced.

The headlines of sports stars tangled in sex scandals have become disturbingly commonplace. The latest athlete at the center is Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, who won't face a criminal...

About 100 students in AddRan College alone are participating in undergraduate research projects that may leave a permanent mark in their department, campus or even Fort Worth. But AddRan majors and minors...

I'd like to respond to Mary Sue Greenleaf's column in Friday's issue titled "Baseball team still on break." In it, she suggests that 27 games into the TCU baseball season, the Frogs' chances of getting to Omaha for the College World Series are slim. At the time of the article, TCU had an overall record of 20-7. In 2009 when the Frogs were one win away from getting to Omaha, their record was 18-9 through the first 27 games.

Theatre TCU will take audiences on a journey into fairyland when it wraps up this season's Main Stage Series with the production of the William Shakespeare classic "A Midsummer Night's Dream.""A Midsummer...

Being a woman in the military can be challenging. Being a mother in the military is a whole different ball game. According to The New York Times, more than 100,000 mothers have served in the war, which is roughly half of the women who were deployed.

When mothers leave home to go to Iraq, they are sometimes leaving several children or a baby who is only a few months old and still nursing. Some mothers are struggling to find childcare if they are single moms without family support.
