Many areas of the TCU campus were damaged by the storm Wednesday night. Strong winds overturned cars and blew out windows in vehicles parked at the University Christian Church parking lot on Rogers Drive. Students sought shelter in the ground floors or base- ments about 8:30 p.m. Wednesday when the tornado sirens began sounding in Fort Worth. Elsewhere, floodlights at Amon Carter Stadium were bent and twisted like pieces of plastic. Thursday, crews spent much of the day attempting to remove the mangled pieces of metal from the stairwell at the stadium.

The Park Ridge Apartments, located about three minutes away from the TCU campus, was one of the hardest hit areas in Wednesday's storm. The tornado left stu- dents and other residents of the complex, such as Anna Kirkland and Charity Adams (above), without homes, shelter and a sense of security. Cleanup efforts lasted throughout the day on Thursday, with the Red Cross offering food and other assistance to storm victims. The university's hous- ing office has pledged to offer shelter to any stu- dents currently without a place to stay.

Both characters undergo intense changes in the play — and these actors really make the audience understand what they are going through. College Life: Overall, the direction, lighting and staging of the play was top notch. Russell does an exceptional job bringing out some of the subtle nuances of the play — bits of intense turmoil — and even some humor here and there.
