The illusion show "Maze," which is sponsored by TCU Campus Crusade for Christ, will make a stop at TCU tonight to both entertain and enlighten students.

Days after the start of a new semester, students can come to the Brown-Lupton University Union Ballroom and enjoy the illusion show for free.

"Maze" promised a lot more than just the expected sleight of hand and card tricks.

As TCU takes its place on a national stage, we're fortunate to have alumni and students paving the way with poise and grace.

Senior broadcast journalism major Ashley Melnick's appearance in the 2011 Miss America Pageant and alumnus Clint Robertson's second place finish on "The Apprentice" are both great examples of Horned Frogs using their talent and ingenuity to become positive leaders in the global community.

One can't heal an open wound with a small bandage. Nor can you expect to cure homelessness in four downtown Dallas areas with a city ordinance.

A new city ordinance bans panhandling, or aggressive begging, in areas across downtown Dallas, making it virtually impossible for the homeless to ask for assistance of any kind. These areas include the business district, Deep Ellum, Uptown and Victory Park. Violators will be fined up to $500 for soliciting money or help.

A choir workshop and concert to raise money for charity would also provide a way for alumni and current students to interact and network, President of the Christian Choral Organization Walter Sanders said.

The junior accounting and finance double major said the workshops would begin Thursday and end with a concert performance Saturday. The workshop would teach participants tips, techniques and the songs to perform Saturday.

Word of Truth Gospel Choir and the Black Alumni Alliance will sponsor the events, which will be open to all students and alumni.

Dallas Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett certainly gave his team a spark as interim head coach, winning five out of the last eight games of the 2010 season after a dismal 1-7 start under Wade Phillips.

When called upon as Dallas' back-up quarterback, Garrett provided similar results as a player. His career totals of 11 touchdowns and 2,042 passing yards aren't stunning, but Cowboys purists will never forget Garrett's second-half heroics against Green Bay in a 42-31 victory during the 1994 season.
