Lady Antebellum's performance Saturday night drew the largest crowd to date at the university's fall concert, Student Government Association officials said.

Student activities coordinator Brad Thompson said as of Monday, attendance was estimated to be around 6,000, but that a more accurate count would be available later in the week.

Usual attendance for the university's fall concert was around 3,500, but the large crowd was expected because of the high profile group, he said.

SGA transperancy, awareness increases with student participation

Published Oct 4, 2010

The TCU Student Government Association performs complicated and demanding tasks through a network of branches, committees and advisors. The student body cannot hope to gain full awareness of each decision occurring in its government. However, one of the most significant changes in student government since the end of the last academic year has been the transition of much student programming authority from the Programming Council to a newly-minted organization known as TheCrew.

The win was the first road shutout under head football coach Gary Patterson in his ten seasons as head coach. The last road shutout was a 24-0 win in 2000 against Navy when Patterson was the Frogs defensive coordinator.

Utah will be the toughest opponent TCU faces this season

Published Sep 30, 2010

This season, head football coach Gary Patterson put a pyramid on the wall in the team room before fall camp the same way he did last season. Even though the Frogs reached the Fiesta Bowl last season, the first postseason goal on the pyramid is to win the Mountain West Conference.

TCU won the conference last season with an unblemished 8-0 record in conference play. The closest the Frogs came to a loss was a 20-17 win at Air Force played in single-digit temperatures. Other than that, no conference team came within 27 points of upsetting TCU.

TCU will dominate Colorado State

Published Sep 30, 2010

With an undefeated season and many accolades under its belt, TCU is going to dominate the first conference game against Colorado State at Hughes Stadium in Fort Collins, Colo.

Last week, senior quarterback Andy Dalton threw two interceptions against SMU, which gave the Mustangs a 17-14 lead early in the third quarter. Coming off a game that shouldn't have been that close, Dalton should redeem himself in Colorado. After an injury sidelined him for his first appearance at Fort Collins in 2008, Dalton will have his first career start at Hughes Stadium.

Changing gun laws will be ineffective

Changing gun laws will be ineffective

A gunman fired several shots on the University of Texas at Austin campus Monday before killing himself on the sixth floor of the Perry-Castañeda library. Fortunately, no one else was harmed in the incident,however, it does highlight a major issue affecting college campuses around the country: the right to bear arms on campus. Most campuses do not allow civilians to carry guns and I believe this incident is another reminder of what a mistake that is.
