An emergency "blue light" phone that is taller than average has been installed in the main Worth Hills parking lot so that students can spot it more easily, a Physical Plant official said.

Harold Leeman, associate director of major projects, said the emergency phone in the main Worth Hills parking lot was made taller than the others because of the large number of SUVs parked in the lot.

"We were afraid that the normal phone might get hidden behind a car," Leeman said.

On Halloween, as the then BCS No. 6-ranked Horned Frogs took on University of Nevada, Las Vegas, Versus cameramen panned to rows upon rows of unoccupied seats, exposing a huge flaw for TCU's nationally prominent football team, now ranked fourth in the nation.

The average home attendance for the 2009 season currently stands at 34,247 fans, about 77 percent of the stadium's total capacity of 44,358 people. While Saturday's game against the University of Utah is sold out, the Horned Frogs' last home sellout was in 2006 against Texas Tech, more than three years ago.

It is about time someone accurately depicts the end of the world.

Today, the long anticipated movie "2012" hits theaters and will tell the story of how the world will come to an end in a little more than two years.

But how could that be fair at all? Society won't get to witness the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Summer Olympics. What will our next president accomplish? Freshmen, we won't even be able to graduate.

The preparations around the university's sold out football game Saturday is a "total campus effort," university officials said.

Five different broadcasts, including ESPN College GameDay, will be streaming from campus before, during and after the game and that requires some extra planning, said Ross Bailey, associate athletics director of operations.

"The university will have installed 80 phone lines by the time the whole weekend is over for all of these groups," Bailey said.

By most accounts, TCU's attendance has been nothing to write home about. However, one Horned Frog blogger thinks a more fair method of looking at attendance should be considered.

The Purple Wimple, author of the TCU blog of the same name (wimplefrogs.blogspot.com), devised a ranking system comparing average football attendance to the schools' enrollment for the BCS Top 25 ranked teams on Nov. 2. The Frogs finished second, only behind Notre Dame.
