It will be easier for pedestrians to get around Waco as Waco city officials begin plans to extend the Brazos Riverwalk.

The city of Waco has recently received money from the federally funded program called the Transportation Enhancement Program, said a staff member of the Texas Department of Transportation who did not wish to be identified. Money is given under the Transportation Enhancement Program to support local projects that have a strong link to transportation.

“It was created to provide funds for projects that do a little above and beyond what the department’s used to doing,” the staff member said.

The Baylor Alumni Network aims to bring the Baylor community together and, to do so, the network relies heavily on volunteers.

The alumni network is a part of the Baylor Division of Constituent Engagement, which oversees many of Baylor’s outreach programs. According to the mission statement, the goal of the alumni network is to create opportunities for Baylor alumni, parents and other constituents to come together and build meaningful relationships.
