My TCU Family
Posted May 2, 2012 by Kari B
First, I want to apologize that my blog posting has been non-existent this semester. Your last couple months your senior year are chaotic and absolutely fly by. I have been running around doing group projects, working at my internship, finishing my term as Finance Chair in SGA and interviewing for jobs. Needless to say, I [...]

Memories of Freshman Year
Posted April 17, 2012 by Emma B.
Memories of Freshman Year Well, I can’t believe it’s here. The final push to the end of the semester, and the end of my freshman year at TCU. I really don’t want to believe that my time in Milton Daniel as a freshman is coming to the end, because if all of college goes this [...]

The Problem of Memory
Posted April 17, 2012 by Scott D.
What is essential to the process of memory? How are we as humans shaped not only by popular media, but also by personal experience? As I have had the pleasure of enjoying Cultural Memory II this semester (and the anticipation of taking Cult. Memory I next semester) I can say without hesitation that my perception [...]

What 2 Do @ TCU
Posted April 9, 2012 by Jimmy S
In talking to perspective incoming TCU students, the one question I get asked the most is this: “What is there to do at TCU and in Fort Worth?” Everybody uses that exact same verbiage also. Anyways, I figured the easiest way to definitively tell everybody everything I have done is to list them. Here we [...]

Non-Traditional Pilgrimage
Posted April 4, 2012 by Guest
From guest blogger: Chelsea Low The traditional definition of pilgrimage is a journey to a sacred location of spiritual significance. However, I am among a group of TCU Honors students who will be exploring the idea of non-traditional pilgrimage through a trip to London, Paris, and Rome this summer; for example, ideas we may consider [...]

Home is . . .
Posted January 9, 2012 by Jimmy S
Going into Winter Break (I prefer Christmas Break, but political correctness and what not) I was not sure what to think. I’ve always been a pretty independent person, and being from Florida, the combination of expenses and a lack of desire to return home made this the first time I would fly from DFW back [...]

A German Holiday
Posted December 24, 2011 by Emily M.
24 December 2011 :: Happy Holidays! I cannot believe it is Winter Break already! It is so cliché, but this semester really did fly by. At the time, some days drug on. But then looking back, those long days blended together. I was extremely lucky with my finals schedule: I ended on Tuesday the week [...]

Filling 9 Cavities, Reading Books, & Watching Vids
Posted December 20, 2011 by Will
12 December 2011 :: There is NOTHING better than finishing your last final. The feeling of satisfaction that comes with another successful semester is unbeatable. Christmas break represents a reprieve from all-nighters in the library, stressful days spent cramming before tests, and, perhaps most importantly, dinner in the BLUU. I am not sure anyone drives [...]

Horned Frogs: Sports & Friends
Posted December 15, 2011 by Jimmy S
So, here’s the thing. Although TCU has an awesome football program, our basketball team has not lived up to the same standards of late. But, here’s the next thing. This season, the team is really trying to get us all fired up about the season, so there have been so many incentives to go to [...]

Freedom: 3 Days & Counting
Posted December 15, 2011 by Scott D.
15 December 2011 :: Here we are. 3 days away from the freedom that every student is craving. Christmas break is rapidly approaching but is it coming quickly enough? As I sit here typing as I take my first study break in 4 days, my sleep deprived brain is dazzled by the dreams of what [...]
