Baylor has a long history of producing excellent musicians, from classical to popular music. Today’s students now have an added bonus to put them on the road to a career in the music industry: Uproar Records, launched last fall as the first student-run record label in the nation. Thursday, Uproar Records held a release party […]
My wife and I got engaged while we were living in Pennsylvania, and in the end we decided to get married at the church she grew up attending in Florida. We briefly considered getting married at Baylor, but until recently I hadn’t realized just how many amazing places there are around campus to get married. […]
Most of campus was focused yesterday on the Baylor men’s basketball team’s big win over Georgetown in the first round of the NIT; a highly energized crowd of 8,400 saw the Bears earn their first postseason victory in nearly 60 years, as BU came away with a 74-72 win. No. 3 seed Baylor now advances […]
As a Baylor student from Houston, I often drove through the small town of Hearne (population 4,690) headed to and from home along Highway 6. About the only thing I knew about Hearne was that it had two convenient pit stops, a Sonic and a Dairy Queen (like most Texas small towns). But like most […]
We’ve mentioned the ONE Campaign’s efforts here before; a relatively recent student group at Baylor, the ONE Campaign quickly moved into the top 50 campus chapters in the nation last year, and this year has taken another large leap, ranking as the No. 3 ONE campus in the nation out of over 800 participating universities! […]
We wrote last fall about former NBA star David Wesley’s return to Baylor as a student manager for the men’s basketball team. Wesley, a 14-year NBA veteran, is back on campus to finish his degree, fulfilling a promise he made to his mother. ESPN picked up on the story and ran an excellent “Where Are […]
News 8 Austin this weekend ran a nice profile (including video) on the Baylor Experimental Aquatic Research (BEAR) facility and the work Baylor researchers are doing there. The facility allows professors and students to conduct experiments that could help the Environmenal Protection Agency (EPA) set better water quality standards, which in turns means better water […]
My wife and I spent Friday evening enjoying this year’s production of All University Sing. Over the course of nearly four hours, hundreds of students from 17 student organizations sang and danced their way across the Waco Hall stage. My friends from other colleges have difficulty grasping the concept; I usually have to show them […]
Another video to help you get “Up!” on a Monday morning, courtesy of Shania Twain and the same Baylor nursing school students who brought you Footloose last fall. Sic ’em, students!
If you’ve been to a Baylor football, basketball, baseball, softball or volleyball game since 2002, you’ve seen the work of BaylorVision — Baylor’s in-house video production group — on the video boards at Floyd Casey Stadium, the Ferrell Center, Baylor Ballpark and Getterman Stadium. It’s impressive stuff. The team intros and starting lineups might be […]
