At first glance, he looks like a Chinese version of Clark Kent. He is tall, broad-shouldered, but when he removes his thick-rimmed glasses and takes the stage, he has transformed into someone completely different.Instead of superhuman strength, Oscar Seung wields a different kind of power - a power that bursts through his lungs and out his lips to create a baritone sound.

Once, he was Escamillo, a bullfighter who woos the beautiful gypsy "Carmen". Another time, he was Gasparo, an abusive husband who teaches another man to control his wife, in "Rita".

Amid all the chaos known as my life, I found some time to sort through the rather large pile of clothes on my bedroom floor - a pile that could be easily mistaken for a little podunk town just outside of Lubbock.Some of the things I found included a Styx concert stub, my McLovin T-shirt and my "Mighty Ducks" trilogy. There were also some things I didn't want to stumble upon such as my "Beat Texas" T-shirt.

Yikes.

If it couldn't get any worse, I found the movie "Bobby" lying next to the wrinkled purple shirt.

Sigh.

Some things people take for granted: Opening doors, using the restroom or crossing the street. And for people who are able-bodied, these things are easy at TCU.

If you use a wheelchair or are even in a cast or on crutches, routine and ordinary little tasks become an activity to be planned - in some cases, dreaded.

It's not that people mean to be insensitive or uncaring.

But living with a disability is difficult for most able-bodied people to understand.

Inclusiveness is fast becoming a topic of discussion for the TCU community with seminars and speeches routinely appearing on the campus calendar.In order to continue promoting a united learning environment and diversity, the university has started recruiting Fort Worth Hispanics to join the Horned Frog family.

Census results estimate Fort Worth's population as 33 percent Hispanic. TCU is working to draw in area men and women of Hispanic backgrounds to give them a nearby college home, but the university is falling short on some grounds.

It might be a final farewell for the senior football players, but head coach Gary Patterson said he is focused on what he calls a "two-game season."At Tuesday's media luncheon, Patterson said today's final regular season home game against the UNLV Runnin' Rebels marks a must-win situation for his team. Though teams only need six wins to become eligible for a bowl invitation, Patterson said he believes the team, which sits with a 5-5 record, needs to win its remaining games against UNLV and San Diego State University to earn a bowl bid.

The campus of TCU has undergone many recent changes, including a new education complex, an indoor practice facility and two new residence halls. Soon the university will also have a new student union and two more residence halls, but the long-term impact these changes will have on the surrounding neighborhoods is less clear.One factor that could play a large role in the changing dynamic between TCU and the surrounding neighborhoods is last year's decision by the TCU Board of Trustees to require sophomores to live on campus.

The student body exhaled a sigh of relief at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas campus now that the football season is over.Well, almost. They still have two games remaining.The sad reality is that football...

A world without hugs. Could you live in it?The Associated Press released an article Tuesday that spoke of an eighth grader who received detention for hugging her friends goodbye for the weekend.

Her parents took their complaints to the administration, who could only promise that they would review the school policy that banned hugging.

I can understand a policy that doesn't allow teachers to hug their students because of all the cases being brought to court these days when children are touched inappropriately by their instructors.
