Despite a national trend of stagnant salaries among college faculty, TCU faculty salaries remain on the rise, a university official wrote.

Don Mills, vice chancellor for student affairs, wrote in an e-mail that the average salary among all workers at TCU increased 3 percent last year and will be increased 2.5 percent this year based on merit. The percentage increase in pay raise is based on faculty performance, which is assessed by department chairs each year.

Calls to reform or eliminate tenure in academia have been ongoing for years. In late January, Ohio State University President Gordon Gee, the leader of the country's largest university and a prominent...

With other comparable schools like Baylor University and Rice University charging students an annual fee that nears or is more than $100, and with no increases to the TCU student body fee since 2005 , it was warranted for the Student Government Association to propose to raise the annual student body fee from $48 a year to $90.

While an increase in the student body fee is merited, SGA should re-examine how that funding will be allocated if the Board of Trustees approves the proposal.

The men's tennis team has quite a challenge ahead of it this week. The No. 66-ranked Horned Frogs will square off with two Mountain West Conference rivals, hosting the Utah Utes on Thursday and the Brigham Young Cougars on Saturday.

The Horned Frogs are 7-8 in match play on the season, 1-1 in conference and are looking to put together a significant string of wins, a feat they have yet to accomplish this semester. They are coming off a tough 4-3 loss against San Diego State on Sunday.

While some were getting some sun on the beach during spring break, Erykah Badu was getting what many might consider too much sun on a famous Dallas street.

For the "Window Seat" music video, Badu walked through Dealey Plaza, the site of President John F. Kennedy's assassination, while removing her clothing, piece by piece, before she fell completely bare on the very spot where Kennedy was shot.

The TCU Horned Frogs faced one of the biggest challenges of the season on Tuesday night as the No. 12 Oklahoma Sooners came to Lupton Stadium for a one game series. The Horned Frogs came into the game after winning a hard series against Sand Diego State, taking two of three from the Aztecs. The Sooners gave up a three game sweep to Texas this weekend, and were looking to break their losing streak on Tuesday. Oklahoma took the game 4-2.

The TCU club lacrosse team huddles under the stadium lights at Fort Worth Country Day High School after a 19-6 win over the University of Nebraska Cornhuskers. The players are bruised, panting and sweaty as they come together, but they are jumping and screaming with excitement. After the players breaks for the night, they gather smelly bags full of pads and equipment and head to Buffalo Bros., a local restaurant. They spend hours laughing, eating and celebrating their win - and their sport.

But it wasn't always that way.

It requires the athletic endurance of soccer, the passing skills of football and the quick-paced offense-defense turnover of basketball. Players sprint past opponents, cutting in and out as they zigzag their way toward the goal, the light plastic disc constantly sailing on the air between them. They fervently chase after the disc and sacrifice their bodies as they dive into the ground for a stray pass while dodging opponents.
