TCU Athletics to host watch party of football game

Published Sep 24, 2009

TCU Athletics has organized a watching party for students, alumni and the community in the Daniel-Meyer Coliseum for Saturday's football game at Clemson University.

A large videoboard in the coliseum will show live coverage of the game, available from the Web site ESPN360.com, which shows live and past sporting events.



Since ESPN has the rights to coverage of the game, and it is not being shown on one of their networks, the only option for students and the community would have been to watch the game on their computers.

Latest Muse album brings little amusement

Published Sep 24, 2009

As the album title suggests, many of the lyrics deal with mentally resisting the social and political pressure to throw away critical thinking. The lyrics are well-written, but they are also one of the few interesting aspects of this album.

TCU playing at Clemson presents a unique set of challenges, he said.



"The home team never gives it to you, so you've got to go play," Patterson said. "Clemson definitely doesn't do that. They play very well at home."

Damon’s Informant! a dangerously witty but slow film

Published Sep 24, 2009

Even on paper, corporate espionage sounds kind of dull.

Based on the true story of Archer Daniels Midland Company (ADM) executive Mark Whitacre, "The Informant!" has Matt Damon playing a whistleblower who turns on his own company after he finds out they have been involved in price fixing of a food additive.



The problem is he thinks that makes him a secret agent. Worse than that, he is also lying about almost everything else.

Don’t let God take the backseat during college

Published Sep 23, 2009

Many students face an ominous decision every Sunday morning: they wake up (of course, they are tired from a late Saturday night of studying and doing homework) and ask themselves "do I go to church like my parents expect me to, or do I sleep in and be sloth-like, which they will also expect?"

Balancing church life with a busy school schedule is not easy, and it requires the occasional selfless act.
