Even after a degenerative vision disease left her legally blind, the first female editor in chief of the TCU Daily Skiff never stopped being interested in the news or in life, her daughter said Monday...

As I enter my fourth week at TCU, I still can't help but be amazed by this place.

The anthropology program, which lost three of its five faculty members within the past six months, is now looking for a full-time faculty member as part of its effort to revise the program. The three faculty members left under different conditions and interviews for a new faculty member, who would start next fall, will begin in the spring, said Miguel Leatham, an assistant professor of anthropology.

The training was part of the Department of Homeland Security.

"Everybody is trained: when you get the call, you respond to the emergency," he said.
