For those who love nothing more than working on cars, flying down the quarter mile or flinging a roadster around a track as fast as you can, Baylor has the club for you.

Chartered in 2001 by Baylor graduate Jay Jackson, the Baylor High Performance Driving Club, now called the Baylor Driving Club, owns two race cars and has more than 50 active members.

Many proposals have happened on Baylor’s campus. For one couple, a symbol of that special moment has remained under a bridge for the past nine years, written in white chalk.

Matt Waller, who graduated in 2003, met 2005 alumna Jennifer Welch at the Baylor Marina in August 2002. He was in between two-a-day football practices and she was leading a Welcome Week group of transfer students.

The Florida prisoner who stabbed a detective and escaped near Dallas while being transported to Nevada is “a schizophrenic” who vowed not to return to prison, according to authorities and a 911 call released Wednesday.

Alberto Morales, 42, escaped Monday after using a piece from his eyeglasses to stab Miami-Dade Detective Jaime Pardinas, one of two officers transferring the prisoner by car to Nevada.

Doesn’t matter if you’re an alum or not — Baylor loves you anyway.

A luncheon to celebrate Alumni by Choice, devoted fans of Baylor who did not attend Baylor, will take place at 9:30  a.m. Saturday  at Hughes-Dillard Alumni Center located across South University Parks Drive.
