As Athletics Director Chris Del Conte kicked off his department's town hall meetings Tuesday night in the Brown-Lupton University Union Ballroom, he painted Amon G. Carter Stadium as a monument to the university's uniqueness and can-do spirit despite concerns over the planned renovations.

"In 1930, when that stadium was built, we were coming through the [Great] Depression," Del Conte said. "In the hardest times in our nation, they decided to build something special at TCU. We're going through pretty tough times right now, aren't we?"

While fall break may have kept the student fans out of the stands, it didn't hamper the the No. 5 TCU Horned Frogs who advanced to 6-0 on the season with a 45-0 victory over the University of Wyoming Cowboys Saturday at Amon G. Carter Stadium.

Saturday's victory marks back-to-back shutouts for the Horned Frogs for the first time since 1955.

Though the percentage of minority students in incoming classes has stayed the same for the past three years, there are still more minority students coming to the university because of the increase of the overall size of freshman classes, the dean of admissions said.

Ray Brown, dean of admissions, said the increase in total minority students does not show in the overall percentage because the overall class size is growing as well. Minority students have made up 20 percent of the student body for last three incoming classes.

The No. 5 ranked Horned Frogs take on the Wyoming Cowboys at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday at Amon G. Carter Stadium for their second conference game of the season.

Wyoming is coming off blowout losses to then fifth-ranked Texas, third-ranked Boise State and a heartbreaking fourth-quarter defeat against No. 25 Air Force.

The Cowboys are without freshman linebacker Ruben Narcisse, who died in a tragic car accident earlier this season. Wyoming head coach Dave Christensen said the Cowboys are planning to wear a helmet decal with Narcisse's initials for the remainder of the season.

An article in The New York Times titled "Basic Religion Test Stumps Many Americans," noted that "Americans are by all measures a deeply religious people, but they are also deeply ignorant about religion."

To understand and have an informed opinion on many current events, one must know the basics about different religions. To be able to have a stance on a subject and have plausible feelings toward it, one must be educated in what drives it to happen.

The renovation of Amon G. Carter Stadium is set to begin in a little more than a month, but the plans will not be finalized until after the town hall meetings that will address any final concerns on Tuesday and Wednesday.

The meetings, arranged by the TCU Athletics Department, will be held in the Brown-Lupton University Union Ballroom and are open to the public. The meetings will address concerns over parking and seating in the soon-to-be upgraded stadium.
