Nearly everyone has a favorite teacher. I can distinctly remember two of mine, Ms. Paque and Ms. Collins. They were great educators, spinning torrents of exciting material out for their students to attempt to catch. They were pleasant and kind, but demanded extraordinary effort.

I was in my car the other day when "Down Rodeo" by Rage Against the Machine came on the radio. There's no doubt these guys are talented musicians, but their philosophical consistency is lacking.

The struggling Horned Frog basketball team will welcome another squad that has fallen on tough times, the Utah Utes, to Daniel-Meyer Coliseum tonight. Both teams have lost four of their past five games with a win over Air Force, the common denominator for both.

TCU (11-13, 3-6) topped the Falcons 65-51 Saturday in Colorado Springs behind junior guard Greg Hill's career-high 23 points. Prior to the victory, the Frogs had not won a game since they beat UT Pan-American on Jan. 20.

After dropping out of the Associated Press Top-25 rankings, the Lady Frogs this week are back at the No. 24 spot.

Last week, the women's basketball team dropped from it highest national ranking of the season, No. 20, following a road loss to the University of New Mexico.

With two dominating home-court wins against Brigham Young University and the Air Force Academy, the Frogs advanced to 17-5 for the season.

Despite technology and competition, reporters are necessary for democracy to thrive, two veteran journalists said Monday at a university event.

CBS News' chief Washington correspondent Bob Schieffer, a TCU alumnus, and Susan Zirinsky, executive producer of CBS' "48 Hours," told personal stories about their experiences in journalism. Schieffer talked about his encounters with presidents Gerald Ford and Lyndon Johnson, and Zirinsky spoke of her time working at CBS, which she joined as a part-time production clerk in 1972.

Speakers and performers from Fort Worth to France will be on campus this week for Brite Divinity School's annual Ministers Week.

According to the Brite Divinity School Web site, speakers and performers will include the Rev. Sharon Watkins, general minister and president of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ); William Paul Young, author of The New York Times best-selling book "The Shack"; and Olivier Latry, a world-renowned organist from the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris.

For months, noise associated with construction and renovation of Moudy Building South, home of the College of Communication, became a part of the class experience for students there.

John Lumpkin, director of the Schieffer School of Journalism, said that the building had been the same for decades and that the construction is part of a plan to expand the school's future opportunities, like broadcasting student newscasts outside of the university.

One big addition to the school, he said, is the new convergence center.

The World Cup is notoriously known for being Europe's version of America's Super Bowl. Competitiveness is driven to an all-time high, leading to anger, fights, riots and a fair share of injuries. What...
