Picketers from Westboro Baptist Church plan to protest at the Baylor vs. Kansas State football game from 5:30-6:30 p.m Saturday.
According to the organization’s website, the picketers plan to be at the game because “God hates K-State and God hates Baylor and we’ll be there to remind you of it.”
The organization, which was not available for immediate response, states on its website that Baylor is not teaching its students the Word of God and that Baylor has not published anything regarding divorce and remarriage, gay marriage, abortion and other topics of controversy.
As a student, the weeks leading up to final exams can be a rather uneasy time. Between studying, balancing club activities and scrambling to register for next semester’s classes, the life of an undergraduate student is stressful to say the least.
Monday’s Wind Ensemble concert will help prepare the ensemble for its upcoming tour as well as feature a new faculty member, Dr. Jun Qian, on clarinet.
The concert will begin at 7:30 p.m. Monday in Jones Concert Hall in the Glennis McCrary Music Building. Dr. Eric Wilson, director of bands, said he’s excited about the concert.
He said he enjoys going through a breadth of repertoire over the course of the semester, which ensures both students and audiences will experience a diversity of wind music.
