In spring 2006, the TCU bookstore went down in flames. In February 2007, TCU officials announced the new bookstore would be complete a year later.

Concrete was poured for the 34,000 square foot building Aug. 16, and TCU's bookstore opened about six months later, which is a pleasing foreshadow on how the rest of the campus construction will turn out.

Although the old bookstore was a sight for sore eyes and seemed to be on campus forever, the long lines and fights for parking were worth the two-year wait.

I would like to congratulate SGA President Jace Thompson on his veto of the pointless and tyrannical bill to bring jazz music back to KTCU. Don't get me wrong, I have no problems with jazz whatsoever. I am even attending the TCU Jazz Ensemble's concert Thursday.

Nevertheless, to waste time formulating, talking about, and then voting for a bill just to bring back a genre of music is not only selfish, but a misuse of power.
