When others hear of students going to Baylor, the first question asked is often, “Are you going to be a doctor?” But what many fail to realize is that the university has much more to offer and Baylor students go into a variety of fields besides pre-med.

Of 3,259 first-time freshmen who set foot on campus in the fall 2010 semester, 476 opted not to return for their sophomore year, according to Baylor’s Office of Institutional Research and Testing. While some assume students leave because their scholarship packages fail to keep up with rising tuition costs, data compiled by the office of the provost indicate people leave for a variety of reasons, some of which supersede or exacerbate financial difficulties.

With the help of modern technology, many student relationships are held together across long distances with date nights being replaced by phone calls or Skype sessions.

Some students feel that the standard of equality and normalcy at Baylor stops at sexual orientation.

Life can be drastically different at Baylor depending on your relationship status.
