The TCU Barnes and Noble Bookstore is facing competition from students offering to sell cheaper books and deliver them for free.

Josh Dennis, founder of Frogbookstore.com, said expensive books at the TCU Bookstore prompted him to start his own business, which launched last week.

"I want to help students and created a business that makes it easier and cheaper for students to buy books for classes," the junior entrepreneurial management and finance and real estate major said. "This way students won't get frustrated."

Is there no one else at The Skiff who can draw? I have yet to see an editorial cartoon from Lana Blocker that was anything but a blatantly personal attack on Sen. Obama. Where are the editorial cartoons...

The university's efforts to go green are being recognized by North Texas.

The university walked away with three awards granted by the North Texas Clean Air Coalition. The three awards received were Employer of the Year, the Community Impact Award and the Commute Initiatives Award.

"Winning the Employer of the Year Award really shocked me because there is a lot of competition, and for TCU to go across all the categories and win was surprising," said Dr. Tim Barth, a psychology professor and committee member of the NTCAC.

Halloween. Most take full advantage of this unique holiday, for lack of a better word. It's a night full of spooks, tricks, treats and booze. This is the time of year that supposedly anyone, young and old, can enjoy to its fullest potential.

Unfortunately, I'm not most people. To me, Halloween is the most unenjoyable time of the year. It's so overrated and a complete waste of time, at least at my age.

After the Horned Frogs' dominating 54-7 victory over the Wyoming Cowboys, the team is now prepared to face the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.

"I said before the season that I believed UNLV was the most improved team in the league," head coach Gary Patterson said. "This is year four for (Rebel head coach) Mike Sanford, and you can start seeing a lot more character."

Patterson said the Rebels' offense has the most athletic personnel the Frogs' have seen since they played the University of Oklahoma.

What's at stake:In the next presidential administration, the Supreme Court will likely be facing a number of social issues that could shape the country, such as abortion, marriage rights, the right to bear arms and affirmative action, said Jim Riddlesperger, professor of political science.

Riddlesperger said the decisions of justices to step down during the next administration might depend on which candidate wins.

Ms. Martinez's ploy of offense at a perceived slight is insulting to both the group she's supposedly defending (women politicians) and the intelligence of her intended audience.

To sum up the flap over Gov. Sarah Palin's Republican National Committee-funded wardrobe as somehow sexist or demeaning to women indicates that she doesn't really understand what all the fuss is about.

Sen. Obama wears $1,500 suits, John Edwards likes $400 haircuts, Sen. McCain has been spotted wearing $500 Italian loafers - why is Palin's wardrobe any different?

What's at stake:
The next administration will have the opportunity to keep or change the decision of Roe v. Wade on abortion.
"I've heard in my [pro-life] education that there's been a lot of talk about how poorly written the Roe v. Wade decision was and that it takes away the electoral process of the states in terms of deciding what the laws of the land should be," said Melinda Castro, a senior modern dance major and co-founder of TCU Students for Life.
