Hey, lazy musicians: stop languishing and give Fort Worth some fresh tunes to tap its toes to. Garage drummers, bedroom guitarists and closet maraca players, I'm looking at you. I have walked by enough dormitories to know that this campus is full of musicians. (0) comments
In response to Rev. Andrew Weatherford's opinion piece from Wednesday's issue titled "University not reflective of 'Christian' in name," I would like to offer just a few points. Before I am decreed unholy, or a failed "(representative) of what is supposed to be the most prestigious Christian element on our campus," let me also explain that I am a licensed minister, Brite seminarian and currently on track to become ordained.

It was bound to come out sooner or later, but the issue of the word Christian in the name of our university has eaten at me for quite some time.
