As we look back over the last year at Baylor, we’ve really got a lot to be thankful for (and proud of); whether it’s a multitude of athletic successes or academic achievements, the welcoming of a new university president or the way our students gave of themselves on mission trips all over the world, I’m […]
All season, Baylor football’s motto — for the team and fans alike — has been “Rise Up.” (Below is what played on the videoboard just before the team took the field at Floyd Casey this fall, featuring alumnus David Crowder’s “Rise Up” anthem.) After the Bears went 7-5 in the regular season to become bowl […]
Nothing gets me in the Christmas spirit quite like Christmas music. Last night’s Christmas on 5th Street is a perfect example — from the Baylor Religious Hour Choir to the Columbus Avenue Baptist Church Handbells to guest performers Mandisa, Phil Wickham and Matt Wertz, the melodies — from holiday favorites to worshiping the Savior’s birth […]
Over 40,000 fans saw Baylor’s Homecoming football win over Kansas State, and many more visited campus for Pigskin, Bonfire, the parade and other events. For those who were here and want to relive the weekend, or those who couldn’t make it but wish they had, we’ve rounded up our largest photo gallery ever — nearly […]
Baylor football rose to the challenge, making Homecoming a Baylor Bowlcoming with a 47-42 win over Kansas State Saturday at Floyd Casey Stadium. With the victory, the Bears improve to 6-2 on the year, reaching bowl eligibility for the first time since 1995! In what’s becoming the norm for the Bears under head coach Art […]

Back in December, we wrote about Baylor grad Hunter Smith (BS ’08) and his work with an Austin-based group of engineers in modifying a car so it could be driven by an iPhone app. How would Smith ever top that? Easy; he and another BU alum, Chris Culver (BS ’08), worked on Waterloo Labs‘ latest […]
Yesterday, the main story on the front page of USA Today — the most widely circulated print newspaper in the U.S. — was about the work of two Baylor professors and their new book, America’s Four Gods. Sociology professors Dr. Christopher Bader and Dr. Paul Froese based their work on results from the biennial Baylor […]
After writing a couple of weeks ago about Baylor professor Chris Hansen’s two honors at recent film festivals for his movie Endings, I’ve been bombarded with word of other Bears currently appearing on television or in films. Here’s a round-up of the Baylor alumni (and one student!) that I know of who are currently appearing […]
If you were among the thousands watching today’s Baylor-Kansas football game at Floyd Casey Stadium or on national TV, then you saw one of the best shows the Bears have put on in years. Baylor beat Kansas 55-7 in front of a crowd of 35,000-plus, setting all sorts of records in the process. (See highlights […]
