That’s right the NCAA Basketball tournament is quickly approaching. I have looked forward to breaking out the brackets and highlighters all year long, and the moment is finally upon us. But it just occurred to me that everyone doesn’t sit around and watch ESPN all day long like I …

This week’s issue highlights mainly what is happening now and in the future for the campus of West Texas A&M University. New changes will arise in the upcoming months to better the campus and to provide new places for the WT students (that’s you). With all these changes happening, WT will look like a brand new University.
Not only are there changes at WT, but also in the neighboring city, Amarillo.
Amarillo has become nationally recognized as a MMA leader. When …

The Olympics have started again and for the past weekend I have been glued to my television. The U.S. and its elite athletes are once again competing for medals and honor. This is a truly special event that only comes along every four years and cements athletes’ place in history. Due to numerous complications these athletes are struggling to compete.
There have been many storylines for these Winter Olympics, but the biggest one has to be the lack of snow. That’s …

This issue is a little different because we made one side for the guys and one for the girls.We know that guys don’t like to talk about Valentine’s Day, and we know that girls don’t like to talk about football.
So, we made you both happy and gave you 2 in 1!
We hope you all enjoy this special issue, and continue to read the Prairie!

This means that girls’ minds are spinning out of control with lovey-dovey fantasies that even the Lifetime channel couldn’t make into …

Another semester and year has begun, and with it comes the hope and goals of doing our best in all our endeavors. Some people have chosen to make New Year’s resolutions that will change the way they live their lives in 2010. I am one of them.
As the New Year approached, I sat down to think of ways I could improve myself for the next year, but nothing came to mind right away. I mean how do you improve on …

Well, the break was nice, but it’s back to work for us here at the Prairie for yet another semester.
Just like changes were made last semester, we made more for the Spring. We aren’t making drastic changes like formats again, but the publications will be less. We are changing to a bi-weekly magazine instead of every week publications. We want to provide you with more in-depth stories and more overall content.
The magazine will be longer and more detailed. We …
