I was on a mission to become a “jack-of-all-trades,” but with that came the more unfortunate part of the saying “master of none.”
Cats are a low-maintenance and affordable option for college students who want an animal companion.
Some professors do allow eating during class when they see students dashing into the classroom with their lunchboxes or to-go boxes from dining halls. But that doesn’t make it a good solution. Eating quickly still hurts your health, and it’s disturbing to the class environment and both the professors’ and students’ attentiveness, especially when others are hungry too.
TikTok rewards music that’s made for 15-second dance clips, specifically tailored to cater to our ever-deteriorating attention spans. A catchy hook is all you need to go viral and have your song topping Billboard and Spotify charts, no matter how the rest of the song sounds.
For the freshmen who are now arriving at school, the freshman 15 is not a joke. People wonder how it’s possible to gain weight when there is an adequate amount of walking incorporated into our daily schedules, but it all stems from the food.
The freshman 15 holds a lot of weight — the phrase, that is. As college students and incoming freshmen, we are familiar with how commonly a change in appearance and body type is discussed.
Many students fall in love with their college town. Longhorns adore Austin, Aggies love College Station and University of North Texas students are wed to Denton. Yet, Waco garners an unfair and immense disdain from its student citizens. It’s time for Baylor students to realize the great heritage they’ve inherited in Waco.
After recent decisions made at the hands of our government, it’s clear that we have a long way to go in order to get women the rights they deserve.
In January, I wrote an article about my then-opinion — “Pete Davidson is the poster child for looks don’t matter” — diving into how looks aren’t a priority at all when it comes to dating. I still think Pete Davidson is a funny dude who’s going through a rough breakup unrelated to looks. Since then, though, I’ve learned the opinion I held was wrong: Looks do matter (somewhat).
In order to receive a bachelor’s degree in professional writing and rhetoric, I needed to take PWR 4377 — the “internship class” that required students to intern while taking the class. This class was awful. I gained nothing from taking it, and it was an absolute waste of my time and money.
Every semester, the first day of classes is always predictable: go to class, find a seat, get the syllabus, leave 10 minutes early and throw the syllabus away on your way out because you will never use it again.
Gearing up for the first week of school can be a challenge for any student. After a lackadaisical summer off from studying, tests and quizzes, it can often be difficult for students to revamp their mindsets to be academically focused.
Phineas and Ferb were only wrong about the numbers. We have 102 days of summer vacation, and the annual problem for our generation is finding a good way to spend it. In between building a rocket and fighting a mummy, let’s make sure there’s a balance of both laziness and getting stuff done.
Let’s get those nerves settled, because I know exactly how you feel, and I was you not too long ago.
COVID-19 happened, and no amount of denial can erase its devastation. Please don’t forget. Please don’t move on. There is so much for us to take away from the past two years, and the first step in that learning process is intentional remembrance.
If you are looking for a fun, interesting and fairly easy elective or general class, take Introduction to Sociology 1305.
While the decision regarding Roe is not final and the opinions of the court may change before a final ruling, overturning Roe and Casey sets a dangerous precedent for the future of America.
A final exam at Baylor is advertised as an examination that “closes the work of a particular course.” These exams, being the culmination of all that students have learned throughout a semester, usually take up a sizable portion of final semester grades. But should any one assignment be weighted so heavily?
Those who believe in the sanctity of human life must be prepared to step up and lead from the front, providing for mothers in need and pushing to ban abortion in every state. The pro-life movement will continue regardless of how the court rules, but it is now the duty of every citizen to pray and support this majority opinion of the Supreme Court. Regardless of the left’s desperate attempts to cudgel systems into submission through unprecedented exposure and public pressure, it is time to stand firm.
You shouldn’t be forced to listen to everyone, but you also can’t preach free speech while fine-tuning what you see to fit your agenda.
College is what you make of it, so make it fun.
Welcome to Bear’s Declassified: School Survival Guide! I think Ned would be proud to see us all grown up and tackling life in college on our own. After all, he prepared us well, didn’t he?
“Writing is medicine. It is an appropriate antidote for injury. It is an appropriate companion for any difficult change,” Julia Cameron, American author and teacher, said.
Serving others has a positive impact not only on those whom you serve but also on your own life.
Most of the parking garages are close to dorms and are really only accessible to freshmen. Especially this year, most upperclassmen could only get parking passes that aren’t near any of their classes, since freshmen had priority when choosing over the summer.
This is due to one simple fact: I was a transfer student, not a traditional freshman. But coming from Germany and having past experiences only from online courses still made me feel like a freshman.
BeReal is all the rage as it attempts to shatter the perception that social media has to be perfect, but some users still refuse to be real on the app.
PRISM’s chartering has been a long time coming, whether you like it or not. Despite mixed reactions, Baylor students and staff should open themselves up to new opportunities, even if those opportunities aren’t for them specifically.
The Tutoring Center provides many resources for a student who is seeking help. However, the length of one-on-one sessions should be extended to an hour instead of 30 minutes. Students have a hard time grasping concepts in a short period of time.
