UH Department: The University of Houston has taken another step in its quest to become Texas' fourth “tier one” university. The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching moved the university from its previously ranked second-tier status to a tier one school for “very high research activity.” But the university is still not a tier one school like the University of Texas, Rice University and Texas A&M. University President Renu Khator tells the Houston Chronicle the announcement is “good news” but the school still needs to increase its graduation rate and better its reputation in Houston.

Florian Martin spoke with Christians and a religious studies professor about the relationship between Halloween, All Saints Day and Christianity.
