The Catholic bishop of Fort Worth was made an honorary Horned Frog by Chancellor Victor Boschini while celebrating the Bishop's second visit to TCU on Sunday. After his ordination at Daniel-Meyer Coliseum in July 2005, Bishop Kevin Vann came back to celebrate Mass in the Brown-Lupton Student Center Ballroom."I can't think of a better way to finish my day than to be here with you," Vann said.

Mothers always tell their children to cross the street on a crosswalk. But they may not have said that failing to do so could get you a ticket.Although jaywalking tickets are rare, TCU Police encourage students to be careful while crossing the street, said J.C. Williams, assistant police chief.

Williams said there havn't been many complaints in the last year about students crossing the street improperly but said he thinks jaywalking is still a concern.

"We wish students would really consider the safety issues and obey the traffic devices," Williams said.

TCU's University Theatre will be rededicated as the Jerita Foley Buschman Theatre after her leading gift of $550,000 in the $1.2 million theater "facelift" project, said Harry Parker, chair of the theatre department.Buschman was a TCU alumna who was involved in theatre as a student and continued to support the theater long after her graduation in 1946, Parker said.

Buschman was a great benefactor of the theater for many years, and then made this gift shortly before she died two years ago with the knowledge that the theater would be renovated in her name, Parker said.

Last week, TCU officials announced with fervor the $94 million improvement budget to renovate the Brown-Lupton Student Center and build four new residence halls and a University Union. Great, I think, as I do agree the student body needs a more functional space. Also, there is no doubt the campus has an overcrowding issue that needs to be addressed. After the expansion, our future educators will also be the beneficiaries of a multi-million dollar makeover to the Bailey Building.

After two preseason victories, the women's basketball team will open its regular season tonight against Long Beach State at Daniel-Meyer Coliseum. Monday, the Horned Frogs will host No. 10 Georgia.

Redshirt freshman forward Marissa Rivera said the team used its speed to beat then No. 3 Georgia 64-63 last year and plans to use the same strategy in the Monday contest.

She said another key to success against Georgia will be to keep a close eye on Bulldog forward Tasha Humphrey.
