These are the times that try Rice's soul. The recent incident involving the sale of the KTRU transmitter necessitates a surge of vigilance and skepticism among the student body. Unless the Rice administration is forcefully made aware of student opposition to the secretive process through which the KTRU tower and frequency were pawned off to the University of Houston, we must operate under the assumption that any university asset or program the administration deems unprofitable or underutilized is available for sale to the highest bidder.

This week's announcement of the agreement to sell Rice's FM broadcast license and tower to the University of Houston has been, not unexpectedly, not well-received by some students and alumni who are or have been KTRU volunteers or listeners.

This past Friday, I got a nasty shock when I read in the Thresher that The New York Times columnist and talking head David Brooks would be the class of 2011's commencement speaker. As a Times reader, political science major and longtime non-admirer of Brooks, I'm disappointed both by the choice of speaker and the embrace of indulgent intellectual mediocrity that it represents.

Let's face the facts: Last football season was a rebuilding year. After a disappointing 2-10 season in 2009, in which Rice returned only three starters from their 2008 Texas Bowl win, the Owls football team hopes that they have enough talent added to the program that this year will be a different story.

The next month would be the official kick-off of a $3 million campaign to revitalize recycling efforts. Shreveport households received a 65 gallon blue bin in which they were able to use for recycling, combining all of their recyclables into one bin and, along with the standard green trash bin, put out by the curb to be picked up on their regularly scheduled trash day.

I recently discovered a newly-opened seafood restaurant on Kings Highway. Immediately after passing it, the promotion sign seized my attention, not suggesting, but in fact telling me I would soon visit the establishment.
The restaurant sign, which reads "Lazy Fisherman," has a picture of a bearded hillbilly sitting barefoot, holding a long fishing pole with a catfish on the end.
