#Baylor175: Trent and Julie Hughes, Class of 1998

What does your Baylor experience mean to you?

Him: “I was an RA in Penland for two years. And outside of that, I was a DJ — the first and only hip-hop and R&B DJ for KWBU. It was fun. I still have friends and relationships with people I was an RA for. There’s at least three guys that I keep in contact with often that were on my hall my freshman year.”

Her: “He knows everybody when we go to the games. Everybody knows him because he had fun in college. I was the nerd; I studied. I knew I had to have a good GPA to get into grad school, because PT school is so hard to get into. So I was the nerd who studied. He’s always like, ‘Why don’t you know anybody when we go back?’ I’m like, ‘Because I was studying!'”
