The Student Government Association's Programming Council has scheduled Frog Follies as part of the homecoming agenda after a three-year absence, a Programming Council representative said.

Kendal Rader, a junior speech pathology major and Programming Council homecoming director, said Frog Follies is a group skit competition, not a talent show. Group skits ranging from songs to dance routines are expected, she said.

The last time Frog Follies was held on campus was fall 2006. It was an event held every year during homecoming week before it was canceled.

School traditions are important at any university because they promote unity and a sense of school pride. Texas A&M University shows that every football season with its Twelfth Man tradition and the Aggie...

The Horned Frogs control their own destiny in the Bowl Championship Series now that they moved their way to No. 6, past the other BCS buster hopeful, Boise State University. The word "destiny" implies belief that something was born or made for a certain purpose, and during the past few years in Fort Worth, most college football fans would agree this Frog team has been made to make national headlines.
