• Record number of graduates walk Baylor’s stage

    Graduation 2008A school-record number of graduates — more than 1,900 — walked the stage at the Ferrell Center on Saturday during Baylor’s spring Commencement ceremonies, joining the approximately 135,000 others who have graduated from Baylor over the past 160-plus years. (Click here for a photo gallery from Saturday’s event.)

    As a fellow alum, let me encourage you graduates not to lose touch with your alma mater. Join the Alumni Association, sign up for the Baylor Network to meet fellow Bears in your new home, and make sure your information is up to date in the online directory. Baylor’s not just a school; it’s a family, one I can personally vouch for, and one with which I think you’ll want to stay connected.

    Sic ’em, Class of 2008!
