Everyone has genitalia. So, why do we laugh or feel awkward when the anatomically correct terms are used in conversation? Stop beating around the bush and call them what they are.

Despite the fact that it is its 10-year anniversary, many students who walk by the garden adjacent to Fountain Mall have no idea what it is. With large stone monuments, a narrow walkway and a foreboding aura surrounding the garden, some may have believed that it is a cemetery.

Whether you’re a picky eater, you’re a college kid who hates vegetables or you’re not comfortable with other cultures’ cuisines, I would highly suggest that you get comfortable with the uncomfortable and give Clay Pot a try.

Considering that we pay around $60,000 a year to go to Baylor, you would think the Wi-Fi would be a little better. You would think Baylor would at least make sure its students have a stable Wi-Fi connection to get work done, especially considering how prevalent online classes have been for the past year and a half because of COVID-19. Good Wi-Fi is a necessity in college, and Baylor can’t even give that to us.

Taking fewer credit hours can allow you to get more involved and have different opportunities that you can’t always receive inside the classroom.

Students can access the service by calling the toll-free 24/7 number at 833-969-3998.
