Brenda Urquhart-Staff

Brenda Urquhart is a daily fixture for many TCU students. She works at Market Square as a dining room attendant and swipes students TCU Id's when they come in for a bite to eat. Before Market Square opened she worked at the old main. "It's much nicer here, but the old main was more homey," she said. Since working in Market Square Urquhart has gotten to know many of the students personally who come in every day for breakfast, lunch and dinner--seeing students is the highlight of her job she said.

She works during most TCU Horned Frog Football games, but she watches the games on the new big screens in Market Square. Students find Urquhart greeting them in Market Square Tuesday thru Saturday from 1:30-9:30. She has worked at TCU in dining services since August 2007; her previous job was at a nursing home in Fort Worth. She calls Fort Worth her home town and she never plans on leaving Cow Town. She said she has seen Fort Worth change for the better over the years.

On her days off she enjoys playing with her three Pit Bulls-Sparkle, Head and Red. She also enjoys eating at her favorite restaurant in town-the Golden Corral. Urquhart's spends a lot of her time sitting behind a computer screen playing video games while at home. Her favorite game to play is Zorro.

Urquhart is friendly, outgoing and gets along well with her co-workers and students. She has become a fixture in many students lives at TCU and says she really enjoys her job. She hopes to stay at TCU for years to come and get to know more of the students who eat at Market Square.
