Words cannot express how excited I am to hear Chancellor Victor Boschini to announce, “I now present to you the spring graduating class of 2012 of Texas Christian University.” However until May 12, 2012, I wait in anticipation and try to prepare myself for what lies ahead of me.

When I got to college, I had no idea what I was doing. Not in school. Not in life. Not in anything.

When I came to Texas Christian University in 2008, I was nervous about what would happen.
More weight was on my shoulders than the average student at TCU. How could I live as openly gay, and where could I safely express that?
I was blessed to find the Gay-Straight Alliance, without which I might still be hiding who I am today.

“Your Life. Our Entertainment.”
That was the catchphrase for frogmylife.com, a website I created my sophomore year. Frogmylife was really just a fun little project that was part of a larger conglomerate of sites that made up Hubba-U. I had been talked into contributing to “The Hubba” by alumnus Mike Vosters, a social media guru and hustler extraordinaire. Some of you graduating seniors might recognize him as the brain trust behind “TNA” our freshman year, or Thursday Night Alternative.

Now, one month into it, my excitement for the adventure hasn’t changed, but my perspective has.

Walter Sanders III and I did not have the greatest first impressions of one another when we met back in the summer of 2010. However, soon after our first confrontation, I quickly realized that Walter Sanders III was one of the most devoted and charismatic individuals that I have ever met.

We live in a highly visual culture. The emphasis placed on the appearance of politicians, celebrities and even corporate bosses, the prevalence of advertisements and the even the increasingly high-tech, high-definition screens on computers and phones speak for this fact.

Being Christian has significant voter appeal for candidates for the presidency of the United States.
“Because the United States is highly churched as a people, religiosity is a factor in the U.S. that is a little bit more significant in many countries,” James Scott, the Herman Brown chair and professor of political science said.
