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 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.

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.
