Endeavors
We interrupt
our magazine
to bring you
a new magazine. Well, sort of. Endeavors, TCU's new publication of faculty scholarship and creative activity, is actually an online publication.
Here, we just tease you with a
sampling of the intriguing answers our
fascinating faculty seek. You'll find the full
stories online, along with abstracts from
graduate student projects, a list of funded research and creative projects, and links to even more information.
Our professors have always dug into the past, investigated the mysteries of the universe,
challenged the artistic senses and studiously pondered the most demanding questions of mankind -- usually in relative obscurity. That needs to change. So go online and find out the "rest of the story." We think you'll be amazed
at the great work being done at TCU. We are.
