The Interfraternity Council has added a new position to its office by splitting an old one, an IFC official said.

Grant Gossett, IFC vice president of student recruitment, said the council has decided to split the position of vice president of finance and administration into two separate positions. That position will be replaced by the new posts of vice president of finance and vice president of administration. Gossett said splitting the position should simplify each job and keep the workload from piling up on any one person.

Programming Council canceled this year's Battle of the Bands because of a lack of interest, a Programming Council representative said.

Police investigate possible connection between attacks

An attack reported by a female student Thursday is still under investigation.

Campus police Lt. Ramiro Abad said Friday that the university and Fort Worth police departments were looking into whether Thursday night's attack was related to a sexual assault reported Oct. 13. An increase in nighttime campus security after the Oct. 13 assault is still in effect.

Freshman students have had the bar set high for their Frog football experience. In one season, students have experienced Top 25 football for the entire season. The Frogs reclaimed the Iron Skillet and watched two Atlantic Coast Conference teams fall on their own turf. Students have been able to wake up to Frog football on ESPN with College GameDay in Provo, Utah. Most importantly, freshmen have not experienced the bitterness of a loss yet. But there is still so much more to come.

Students wanting to know more about the two candidates running for student body president can read their answers to the question and answer section. Andrew Pulliam, a junior finance major from St. Louis, and Marlon Figueroa, a junior finance and accounting double major from San Juan, Puerto Rico are running for the position.

Fifth-grader Dusty Leenhouts got to talk to undercover officers Friday. First-grader Magdelene Evans said police sirens were cool, but they hurt her ears.

The campus police department met with Starpoint School students for TCU Police's first career day in the Kelly Alumni Center parking lot.

Displayed at the university bookstore, the Frogs' new Nike uniforms have students and alumni talking.

According to a press release from Nike, the uniforms were designed with the inspiration of the Frogs' promising future and fearless attitude. Designers were able to digitally replicate the image of horned frog scales on parts of the uniform.

The Nike Pro Combat uniforms accommodate the evolution of the game of football, according to the press release.

Not since the Frogs played the Texas Tech Red Raiders in 2006 in a 12-3 Horned Frog win has Amon G. Carter Stadium been filled to capacity.

As of Monday, 44,358 tickets had been sold for Saturday's game against the Utah Utes, according to gofrogs.com. Standing room only tickets are still available.

The official capacity of Amon G. Carter Stadium is 44,358. TCU's average home attendance in 2008 was 30,389. The largest home crowd last season was 36,180, when TCU beat then-ranked No. 8 BYU 32-7.
