Young women can stop counting calories and start taking control.

That's the message of award-winning author and journalist Courtney Martin, who is coming to campus Monday to discuss her book, "Perfect Girls, Starving Daughters," and how disordered eating, food and fitness obsession have become normalized among college women, a university official said.

Martin said she was encouraged to write her book after college when she began mentoring young women.

The university intends to honor the commitment made by the veterans who have served the country by pledging to participate in the Yellow Ribbon program, which would fund tuition for incoming veterans, Chancellor Victor Boschini said.

Boschini said agreeing to participate in the program seemed like the right thing for the university to do to help veterans. He said the university looks for opportunities to help bring students with a diversity of experiences to campus and he hopes the Yellow Ribbon program will accomplish that goal.

Representatives of the TCU Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender community expressed a lack of unity within the gay population in addition to the broader campus, according to a study on the support of LGBT students within the university.

A research project led by sophomore social work major Shelly Newkirk and her mentor Tracy Dietz, associate professor of social work, extensively surveyed five students from the gay community.

The last time the Lady Frogs' basketball team played the University of Wyoming, it was a high-scoring affair.

The Lady Frogs (17-8, 9-3 MWC) eked out a 81-78 win in Laramie Jan. 21, but will look to do better defensively when they face the Cowgirls on Saturday.

"Giving up 78 points is far more than we would like," associate head coach Brian Ostermann said. "We have to do some things better defensively against them."

The No. 21-ranked women's tennis team, with up-and-coming freshman Gaby Mastromarino, looks to continue its recent strong play this weekend when it hosts North Carolina State University and a No.15 University of Miami squad at Bayard H. Friedman Tennis Center on Saturday and Sunday.

Mastromarino and the team are 3-2 this spring after topping Auburn University 4-3 nearly two weeks ago.

Head coach Jefferson Hammond said Mastromarino has made a smooth transition to becoming a college tennis player, especially with the demands of school and shorter practice time.

The equestrian team, who will face off against rival Southern Methodist University this weekend on their home field in Mansfield, is hoping that a win will give the team momentum to finish off the season strong.

Head coach Gary Reynolds said the hunt seat team has been on a roll the past several competitions and is finally beginning to perform well. He said there has been leadership on the team from sophomore Milana Trimino, who is 7-1 on position on the flat this year.
