Adeyemi received the most outstanding lecturer this past semester.

Just In
Excitement filled the air in Waco as football kicked its season off and volleyball was set for a top-20 clash. The weekend did not go the Bears’ way as football drops a heartbreaker and volleyball gets swept.
No. 17 Florida’s intense service pressure and rally-killing attacks overpower No. 20 Baylor volleyball in the top-20 matchup.
“Everyone believed we [were] going to win; I did, and we fought to try and get that win,” said Aranda. “Guys were playing through pain, discomfort, and all that. It’s one of the reasons for going for it. You know, we had a bunch of guys getting band-aided up, and we had a chance to kind of close it out.”
Baylor decided to try to win the game with a 2-point conversion with nine seconds remaining. The Bears fell inches short of the game-winning conversion, dropping the season opener to Auburn.

The event was created in response to TPUSA’s presence on campus, but speakers and organizers consistently emphasized that the gathering was not merely reactive. Instead, it functioned as a faith-centered call to action, rooted in Christian teaching and expressed through civic engagement.

ARTS & LIFE
It’s staycation weekend, which means it’s time to take a rest from two weeks of labor and scout out the Waco scene. Here are some activities to get you out, about and away from that assignment you’ve been stuck on.
Saturday exams should not be allowed. The weekend is meant for rest and relaxation, not taking the most important test of the semester.
It is hard to balance relaxation and work in college. It is honestly paradoxical. I have long accepted college is just plain stressful. College is a lot of work, and it is work that is really worth it. It is good preparation for the stress that comes with working a job in the real world™, and it teaches you many valuable skills.
In college, we are busy enough with classes, homework, jobs and just trying to navigate life. We do not need another requirement on top of all of that — especially one as particular as what is expected.

So, without further ado, here are 12 of The Editorial Board’s best one-liner opinions that didn’t make the final cut.
Exams take less time to prepare for and make more sense for a college student’s schedule. For me, exams show their superiority.
Amid a holiday season full of joyous occasions, family traditions and a break from school, buying gifts can be a real stressor — but it doesn’t have to be.
