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 […]

It’s impressive stuff. The team intros and starting lineups might be […]

During President Bush’s last days in office, Waco news anchor Julie Hays […]
You might remember our stories this spring about Kristin Elliott, at the time a high school senior preparing to enroll at Baylor. Kristin was named ABC World News Tonight’s Person of the Week back in May after the network learned of her battle with cancer and her work to start an AIDS orphans house in […]
We’re off for Christmas, but from our den to yours, we hope you have a Beary Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
