The different political views and ideologies that students are confronted with in college can cause a division among peers.
From a young age, we’re taught to avoid certain behaviors, and the seven deadly sins are supposed to be the worst of the worst. They can deform our character and turn us into horrible people.
Have you ever looked at pictures of yourself from high school, sighed and said to yourself, “Man, I looked good back then.” You are not alone.
There’s a gravy-soaked cookie riding a greasy plate down the conveyor belt to the kitchen sink at a cafeteria somewhere. No doubt, you’ve probably seen it around campus.
We’ve all been there — it’s 2 a.m., you just finished a paper that’s due in three hours, and you haven’t even started studying for a test you have the next day. The automatic next step is to turn on the Kuerig you got for high school graduation and make yourself another cup of coffee.
Baylor students have mixed reactions to the increasingly open sex culture of America. As students at a Christian university, their school expects them to behave in ways that reflect Baylor’s Christian principles which maintain that sexuality is a gift from God and that temptations to deviate from this include heterosexual sex outside of marriage and homosexual activity.
“Lust is the craving for salt of a man who is dying of thirst.”
Baylor men’s basketball coach Scott Drew, women’s basketball coach Kim Mulkey and football coach Art Briles are the three highest paid employees at Baylor University, and it’s not really close.
It’s a classic opening question – what’s your major and what do you want to do with it? Every college student is asked this at some point in their college career, and by the time many graduate, they have perfected their answer, whether the motive is for salary or a true passion in their career field.

Skipping, ditching, playing hooky — an absence by any name can add up to a world of trouble at Baylor, where losing class time can result in losing credit.
A beast that rears its ugly head at the sight of a deadline. The little voice in our heads that says there’s plenty of time later. The urge to choose an all nighter to write a paper instead of finish it in over a full semester.
Skinny models, perfectly sculpted muscles, impeccable hair, thick eyebrows, flawless skin and a straight nose. These are the qualities most models in photoshopped advertisements have.
Tinder, the dating app that caught fire on college campuses all across America, has made its mark on Baylor. Whether someone is looking for a friendly date, a hookup or simply an ego boost, Tinder makes it easy to find the perfect match with a simple left or right, “yes” or “no” swipe of the thumb. App dating’s simplicity is its strength, although the simplicity of it could be viewed by many as superficiality.

The ability to attend one of the most prestigious Christian universities in the world comes with a hefty price tag — $50,000 a year to be exact.
There are a shocking number of stories and sagas behind the scenes of college sports that rarely ever get talked about, much less even known to others outside the lines. The focus hardly ever goes to players waiting their turn in college, struggling to feel affirmation for their hard work.
On Valentine’s Day earlier this year, sleazy politician Frank Underwood wooed the world once again with his syrupy-sweet southern accent and maniacal tilt of the head. After a yearlong hiatus, both he and his equally diabolical bride strangled the life out of allies and foes alike with their conniving, cunning charm.
“You whore! You are nothing but a whore!” Her face smashed into the dashboard. *Sarah could not hear the words her husband, *James, was screaming. They were muffled in the moment – lost in the sheer shock of what was happening. Head throbbing, ears ringing. She knew this was bad.

Anger, anxiety, depression, sleepiness and being under the influence. Some people may experience these feelings and emotions more than others and some may only experience one of these emotions. No matter how often a person experiences this, we have all been in one of these states of being before, even when behind the wheel. These states also cause road rage.
