The No. 28-ranked women's tennis team returns home this weekend to play three matches against conference opponents, with the expectation to win all three, the team's coach said.

"Based on the rankings, we're favored to win all three," head coach Jefferson Hammond said. "Our expectation is to do that, but we have to get out there and earn it."

The team plays the No. 49-ranked University of Utah on Friday, No. 57-ranked Brigham Young University on Saturday and the University of New Mexico on Sunday, all at the Bayard H. Friedman Tennis Center.

Babies, babies everywhere - and none are left alone from the public eye.

From the controversy surrounding Nadya Suleman's motherhood of her 14 children to the public scrutiny of Madonna's questionable adoption methods in Malawi - it seems that babies are often in the news. It is not that the public scrutinizes the children so much as it examines and sometimes vilifies the mothers.

It seems like every other magazine on the shelves has a picture of Angelina Jolie holding one of her three children, with Brad Pitt in the corner.

TCU Allies, a group of faculty and staff in support of LGBTQ issues, is writing a document proposing improvements toward LGBTQ awareness and concerns on campus and will present it to the administration for review.

Jeremy Albers, associate chaplain, said the document will outline the current climate toward the LGBTQ community on campus and the possibilities of a future LGBTQ resource center for students with a full-time staff position.

University Drive isn't just a street name anymore.

TCU alumnus Marc Istook co-created a Web site by the same name in order to offer prospective college students some guidance in choosing a university, as well as some helpful tips for settling into college life.

Istook said he and co-creator Shannon Meairs, a Pepperdine University graduate, have been working on the project for three years. The Web site was launched in early March, he said.

Business students in the Neeley Fellows are extending their hand to United Way in an effort to encourage the campus to get involved in the community.

This week, the group hosted Live United Week, a week-long series of events supporting the nonprofit, to tie in with United Way's current campaign, said Emily Taylor, a junior accounting major.

The Live United campaign urges people to reach out to their community by donating and advocating for causes they care about.

A group of political science students has taken on an active role in addressing student concerns about off-road vehicles obstructing pedestrian traffic on campus sidewalks during passing periods. It is refreshing to see students working first hand to improve the university community.

However, now that the student body has representatives working on its behalf, the university and its administration must be willing to meet these students half way and strike a deal. This is the only way the university can call itself a community.

In a moving gesture to commemorate those who lost their lives in the attacks of Sept. 11, the finishing touches are now being applied to a new battleship named the USS New York. The ship was made from...

The Free Application for Federal Student Aid form has gotten a lot of media attention lately regarding needed improvements, but it's not reasonable to expect any government program to run efficiently.

The university's director of financial aid, Michael Scott, said in a Skiff article Tuesday this week that there were problems with the length, redundancy and inefficiency of the FAFSA system.

When I first read this story, I thought, "Whoa, we have an administrator named Michael Scott? How cool is that?"
