The Alliance Defense Fund Center for Academic Freedom recently issued "red lights" to TCU, the University of North Texas and other local colleges telling them that their free speech codes are unconstitutional. While the group's ideas about suppressing freedom of speech with regards to religious ideas are mostly focused on public universities, TCU is a curious case because it has "Christian" right there in its name.

While concern about the H1N1 flu remains, vaccines for the disease are scarce but should be available on campus soon, a university official said.

Don Mills, vice chancellor for student affairs, said Texas has not received the vaccines the state requested.

"The state of Texas had originally asked for 8 million doses and right now they've been granted 142,000," Mills said. "Those are being allocated to people at risk and health care workers. We expect to get some vaccine towards the end of the month, but we don't know how much or exactly when."

Reality TV shows truly are the bane of our modern society. Have we as modern, mostly boring, humans reached the dénouement of our glorious civilization where we are now voyeuristically watching other pathetic humans going on about their daily lives? The fact that wastes like "K-Fed" and other social leeches now have their own shows because they were hanger-ons to a more famous and just as uninteresting celebrity is truly mind-boggling. It is also disturbing that people kill themselves slowly by watching these shows, and they do not even know it.

The campus escort program Froggie Five-0 has seen an increase in requests for rides after recent sexual assault reports involving students.

A Froggie Five-O driver said he usually responds to 40 calls a night but answered between 50 and 60 Wednesday night, after a student reported Tuesday night that she was sexually assaulted while walking on campus.

TCU Police Officer Pam Christian, director of Froggie Five-O, said she couldn't confirm those numbers.
