As a college student, my No. 1 reason to purchase anything is price. The last thing any college student wants is unnecessary expenses.

News has always been something I have gotten for free. The Daily Skiff is accessible in almost any building on campus for free. Surrounding community papers and even national newspapers like, USA Today, are available in some buildings on campus for free. The easiest and most accessible form of gathering news is from sources online, and it is also free.

Texas Rangers third baseman Michael Young released an official statement Monday night regarding the recent trade rumors surrounding him.

The 34-year-old is "sick" of the ongoing rumors and the constant back and forth attitude of the Rangers front office. He simply wants respect and he feels he will get it elsewhere.

Young has a valid point.

He has been shuffled around the infield like a journeyman utility player for the better part of eight years. He has moved from second base to shortstop to third base to DH and now, as early as tomorrow, out the door.

The university implemented TCU Alert five months after the Virginia Tech shooting in 2007.

The mass notification services system, powered by 3N, was purchased following the recommendation of a committee formed by the chancellor to research communication services for emergency situations.

Thankfully, the university has not had to use the system for any emergencies like the Virginia Tech shooting. However, the recent server troubles have made us grateful for the administration's foresight.

If students tuned in to "American Idol" on Thursday, they may have recognized a familiar face.

TCU 2010 graduate Tim Halperin made an appearance as a contestant on the show's tenth season.

In front of millions of viewers, Halperin earned his golden ticket to Hollywood last week. Now he is officially in the running to be the next American Idol, said Chancellor's Associate for External Affairs Ann Louden.

Insert catchy first line here, followed by a prepackaged second sentence and finish with a generic mission statement. Plagiarizing content off the Internet has been a common practice among students since...

The Lady Frogs snapped a two-game losing streak Saturday afternoon with a 63-52 win over San Diego State University at Daniel-Meyer Coliseum.

TCU used a 21-2 first half run to jump out to a lead and never looked back in the second half.

The Aztecs had no way of stopping sophomore forward Delisa Gross, who went 7-of-7 from the field and scored a career-high 20 points in the win.

Lady Frogs' head basketball coach Jeff Mittie said, in a press conference, Gross had better aggressiveness and played with balance on the court.

After a week of winter weather that caused four days of canceled classes, the university is almost back to normal.

Missing four days in a semester that only has 70 days of normal class time is a lot, but the cancellations were unavoidable. Student, faculty and staff safety should be the most important consideration when determining whether to keep the university open, and in this case it looks like the university made the right call.
