Earth Hour, which took place Saturday, reminds me of New Year's Eve.

Families sit around their TV sets anticipating that big moment when some city in the world becomes the first to turn off all of its lights to show solidarity in the global effort to save the planet from its environmental ills. The sense of awe and connection to other people is similar to when the ball descends upon Times Square.

You feel like you are a part of something bigger than yourself, something that doesn't necessarily have anything to do with you, but at the same time does.

Bob Schieffer will ask panelists at the fourth annual Schieffer Symposium today to answer the question, "Is campaign '08 about the right stuff?"Schieffer, moderator of CBS' "Face the Nation" and a TCU...

A quotation complimenting the university's security force was changed in the following story at 10:55 p.m. on March 31. The quotation from Newell Williams, president of Brite, was incorrectly attributed to Chancellor Victor Boschini.

The United Nations estimates that by the middle of the century there may be 150 million people displaced because of natural disasters, drought and famine. However, young people have the capability to create positive change, the Environmental Club secretary said.

In his six years as head coach of the men's basketball team, Neil Dougherty posted one winning season and was unable to successfully transition from career assistant coach to head of the Horned Frogs.

Many babies are photographed in bubble baths or sitting on dads' laps wearing baseball caps and little football jerseys, but TCU Executive Chef Joel Branch can be seen in his baby book photographed with pots and pans in the kitchen, ready to prepare a meal.

Branch said he has always loved food and the preparation of new meals and recipes. He began taking his passion seriously at 19 by attending Aims Academy in Dallas. Soon after, Branch started working with ice sculpturist and artist Robert Bifulco in the Dallas Arts District, and in 2004, Branch began working for TCU.
