I stand my ground as another TCU student in favor of a non-Greek way of life. I have nothing against any particular sorority group, I simply value other organizations and my academics over a forced sense of "sisterhood." I pity the fact that a majority of students at this school view going Greek as the only means to a social life. Greeks may seem prevalent on campus, but in reality, only 40 percent actually pledge. Students have the skewed perception that TCU is mainly Greek, causing certain others to believe that non-Greeks have nothing to do on campus.

I know that, as women, we are described as the fairer sex, but we have come a long way to be accepted in an equal light with our male counterparts. So I was surprised to learn that some women on this campus were against the idea of a female Froggie-Five-O. What can she do for us, some asked. It's like walking with a buddy, or I would rather have a man, said others. Wait! Did we just step back in time? Because the last time I looked it was 2005.

The women's tennis team kicked off its year with the Baylor Invitational in Waco and a tournament in Matamoros, Mexico over the weekend.Despite losing in the latter rounds in Waco, head coach Dave Borelli said he learned a lot about his new team and was impressed with how his players handled the competition.

"Since this was one of our first tournaments, we got a really good look at our players," Borelli said. "We can see that the strength coach has done great work with the team's conditioning, and we were up to the challenges last weekend's tournament had to offer us."

Quinn Donahue landed an internship working for Charles Attal Presents, one of the country's biggest independent promotion companies, and learned the ropes of talent buying for the Austin City Limits music festival, among others.Donahue, a fifth-year senior, took a semester off of school in order to secure a future in the Austin music industry when he graduates in December.

"This is what I want to do in the future and there was no other way to gain the experience," Donahue said.

Every September, military services gather on campus to honor some of our nation's most respected heroes: prisoners of war and those missing in action.These individuals make sacrifices that enable us to have the freedoms that we enjoy every day.

Some POWs have to endure inhumane torture to give up information, whereas others are simply held captive. Sen. John McCain and many others were held under horrible conditions in the infamous "Hanoi Hilton" during the Vietnam conflict. However, they did not give in to the pressure of their situations.

Coming off of a three-win, no-loss performance at the Pioneer Classic in Denver, Colo., last weekend, the TCU volleyball team prepares for the Molten/Fort Worth Plaza Invitational today and Saturday at the University Recreation Center."Winning at the Denver tournament has given our team confidence," senior middle blocker Erin Estep said.

The Frogs will need that confidence while facing Minnesota, the No. 5 team in the nation, on Saturday.

9/11 rekindles chivalrySept. 11, 2001, also known as simply "9/11," is a day that changed America as we know it. The Twin Towers, the symbol of our influence and unparalleled wealth, came crashing down. The distinguished structures that painted the New York skyline are now a distant memory of safer times. But, as surely as the buildings fell, two towers were emerging from the crepitating debris.
