British Consul General speaks at Baylor, learns to ‘sic ’em’

“Her Majesty’s Consul General of the British Consulate in Houston” is quite a title; Paul Lynch, the man who holds that honor, is one of the 10 British Consul Generals in the U.S. who report to the British Ambassador to the United States. Lynch spoke on Baylor’s campus last week about what the British Foreign and Commonwealth Office does around the world to provide global leadership on global issues as part of the Global Issues Lecture Series, presented by Baylor’s Center for International Education.

During his stay in Waco, he also met with key Waco leaders, including Baylor Interim President Dr. David Garland and Waco Mayor Virginia DuPuy (BA ’56, MA ’62). Last but not least, he learned what “Sic ’em, Bears!” means from none other than Baylor mascot Joy (pictured).

Sic ’em, Consul General Lynch!
