With millions of potentialdollars on the line from salaries and signing bonuses, college football players must decide between finishing their academic careers or pursuing the much more lucrative life of an NFL player.For players who are legitimate NFL prospects, it's a real dilemma: Do they graduate - or even just finish their eligibility -- or do they exit early and enter the NFL?

The act of censorship should be reserved for extreme circumstances. The censorship imposed on a sculpture in Tandy Hall was uncalled for.Not only does censorship breach the right to free speech, but it also undermines the intelligence of the students on campus.

A 2-foot sculpture of a monkey that was anatomically correct was removed after two days of being on display in the building.

You all know the movie scene. Boy meets girl. Boy and girl fall in love. An unrealistically short period of time passes and boy pops the question ...Will you promise me?

Wait, that's not right. You must have heard wrong.

And you'd be right. You did hear wrong because I can't think of any movie that fits the "happily ever after category" and adds the step of a promise ring.

By this time of year, you have visions of finals and projects dancing in your head. As if you didn't have enough to deal with, you have to get your significant other a present.

The TCU Dining Services catering department is getting ready for the holiday season and preparing for more orders.Kathryn Carter, catering director, said the number of orders can pick up during the holiday season, especially when specials are offered.

Along with the Thanksgiving staples, desserts were ordered as well, Carter said.

Q: I heard while you were filming on location, you were injured. Can you tell us a little bit about that?A: We all got pretty banged up. We had some pretty extensive action sequences. In dangerous situations, you have to take a hiatus from your character and realize you just have to get from point A to point B. We knew getting into this project, it would be a rough experience.



Q: The movie is very political. How much did that weigh on your decision to take the role?
