With its fifth win Saturday, TCU moved within one victory from being a bowl-eligible team - something head coach Gary Patterson said is now the team's main focus.For a team to be invited to a bowl game, it needs a minimum of six wins. With three games left on the schedule, TCU may still have a chance of reaching a bowl.

The College of Communication and the Neeley School of Business exercise different advising techniques - individual versus group advising.Lynn Cole, assistant dean of the Neeley School, said the business school advisers usually speak to groups of 20, mostly freshmen, because the coursework for the students is similar.

However, she said, students who feel their advising needs have not been met in the group session are advised to set up an individual session.

Students in the College of Communication are not satisfied with academic advising. Although the college is looking toward advising models on campus, administrators say there are no easy answers.The College...
