TCU moved over .500 for the first time since the beginning of the season by dismantling St. Gregory's University 80-38 Saturday night. The win moved the Horned Frogs to 4-3 on the season.

The Horned Frogs' stifling defense clamped down on the Cavaliers (0-7) from the opening tip-off until the final buzzer.

SGU went scoreless for the first five minutes of the contest, and did not make a field goal until the 12:03 mark of the first half. The Cavaliers shot 35% from the field for the game and committed 25 turnovers.

A Faculty Senate motion to modify the course retake policy will be considered by the University Council next semester.

The motion states that for each time a student retakes a course, each final grade from that course will be averaged and calculated into the student's GPA,

The anthropology department's move to Scharbauer Hall next academic year is one of several changes to the department, which is looking to expand after a year of setbacks, professors in the department said.

Miguel Leatham, lecturer and department director, said the department hired professor Dave Aftandilian from the University of Chicago in August, expanding a faculty team that was depleted in 2006 when three anthropology professors left in the span of a year.

Now with a full team of professors, the anthropology program is looking to expand, Leatham said.

Next year, Fall Break will change from Thursday and Friday to Monday and Tuesday after a decision by the University Council, a university official said.

Prior to kickoff, the seniors of the Horned Frog football team were greeted with a hug from head coach Gary Patterson before being honored with friends and family for their tenure with the team.

The Falcons of the Air Force Academy weren't greeted nearly as warmly when the Frogs took the opening kickoff and scored 2:22 seconds later on a three-yard run by full back Luke Shivers.

"It seemed like everything was working on that first drive," sophomore quarterback Andy Dalton said. "It set the tone and we just went off from there."

A friend of mine asked me who I thought the best cornerback in the NFL was Sunday night during the Cowboys game. I turned to him and said, "When he's healthy, it has to be Terence Newman. His interceptions are low, but that is only because offenses don't bother looking to his side of the field."

On the play following my response, Newman promptly got burned on a 15-yard crossing route.

The university's Institute for Environmental Studies and Oxford University's Environmental Change Institute in England have joined forces to change the world in an eco-friendly way. The two institutions are leading a research program in the development of wind power. One focus of the program is to address the impact of wind turbines on flying animals. TCU has never fallen short of making a difference in society and this is just another example of its dedication.
