The university will be one of eight temporary early voting locations in Tarrant County starting next week, a TCU official said.

Early voting will be located near the 1873 Grill in the Brown-Lupton University Union starting Monday, said Cyndi Walsh, assistant dean of Student Development Services. Tarrant County election officials will be monitoring early voting on campus, Walsh said.

Students' uneaten food may soon find its way into pigs' bellies, thanks to efforts by Dining Services to reduce waste on campus.

Legia Abato, district marketing manager for Dining Services, said Dining Services is using a new machine called a pulper to help reduce the amount of waste. The pulper grinds and blends food scraps and other waste products and turns them into an organic compost material.

Dining Services is in the process of finding a pig farmer to take the material, which can be used as animal feed, Abato said.

My name is Libby Davis, and I have a drug addiction.

No, it's not as serious as you think. Caffeine is my drug of choice as I am sure it is yours as well. In college, it's probably the safest drug available and when combined with heavy workloads and sleepless nights, it serves a good purpose - most of the time.

Last year, I was a bookworm to the extreme. I spent most of my time in my room studying and only relied on the occasional coffee or espresso to stave off the sleep I made sure to get.

Dining Services' latest attempt to go green takes the university's sustainability efforts to a new level, and those involved deserve a round of applause.

A new machine is helping turn students' leftovers and other waste into an organic compost material. The compost material can ultimately be used as animal feed, and Dining Services is working to find a pig farmer to take the material.

The Horned Frogs went from unranked last week in the Associated Press poll to No. 15 this week and No. 14 in the first BCS poll that came out Monday. The Frogs beat then-No. 9 Brigham Young University 32-7 on Thursday. Junior defensive end Jerry Hughes had four sacks and forced two fumbles to earn the honor of Walter Camp Football Foundation National Defensive Player of the Week. The team was also named the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl National Team of the Week by the Football Writers Association of America.

The 2007-2008 season saw the women's golf team make marked improvement, but it ended on a disappointing note.

Although the Lady Frogs had three first-year golfers play prominent roles, head coach Angie Ravaioli-Larkin said that she and her team were not happy with finishing in a tie for 17th place at the NCAA Championships.

"I really felt like we could've done better, and I think the team does too," Ravaioli-Larkin said.

However, Ravaioli-Larkin said last year as a whole was certainly not a disappointment.
