Amon G. Carter Stadium renovations revealed
TCU announced a $105 million renovation of the west side and north end zone of Amon G. Carter Stadium to better enhance football fans' experience, upgrade amenities and transform the historic Fort Worth icon into the "Camden Yards" of collegiate football stadiums. Work on the renovation, which is funded by donor support, will begin immediately following this year's football season and be fully completed in 2012.

Renovated Milton Daniel opens doors
With new marble floors, flat screen televisions and wood paneling, the newly renovated Milton Daniel Hall may need a new nickname.
"It's not the Milton 'Hilton' anymore," says Craig Allen, director of Residential Housing. "It's more like the Milton Ritz Carlton."


Recent graduate's video goes viral on YouTube
Tim Halperin '10 and a small army of Horned Frog friends made the innovative video for his song "She Runs" for around $500 on one sweaty summer day, but it's already brought him priceless publicity, generating more than 100,000 views on YouTube.


Planning for the future
