    A welcome note from student body officers

    We can only hope that your summer has been filled with family, friends, adventure and rest to get you geared up for the new school year.  Whether you are new to Baylor or are entering into your final year, we are here to serve you.

    The mission of the Baylor University student government is to represent the student body, with respect to our Christian commitment and the ideals of Baylor, through shared governance, as we seek to enrich the quality of student life.

    It is because of our mission that we hope to set our focus on the reason that we are here: to bring glory to God. There is nothing that we can do this year that is worth doing if our intent is not to glorify God and to spread His kingdom across Baylor’s campus. The three of us have been given a unique position of leadership this year, and now it is up to us to take what we have been given and pour it back out across Baylor into students like you.  Please reach out to any of us if there is any way we can help to enhance your experience during your short time at Baylor.

    Baylor is indelibly tied to the city of Waco.  During your experience here at Baylor, venture into the community.  The city we call home is developing quickly and its future is bright.  Find your home in the city and all that Baylor has to offer.  Each of us has grown to want nothing more than incredible success for Waco and for Baylor University.

    The upcoming year is unpredictable, but remain confident in the Lord’s plan for your life and have fun! Baylor has been home to the greatest years of our lives, and we hope it is the same for all of you.

    Blessings,

    Pearson Brown, Student Body President

    Lindsey Bacque, Student Body Internal Vice President

    Steven Newcomb, Student Body External Vice President
