Jones said it’s tragic that abortion became so politicized, but it is, and now it’s voters’ responsibility to bring about the change they want.
On Nov. 5, only one can prevail, but there’s no clear prediction now of who that will be as the race remains nail-bitingly close.

All Are Neighbors, held in the Cashion Academic Center, drew 270 ticketed attendees, totaling 352 people, including VIP guests and speakers, nearly filling all available seats.

This break is noticeably different than any other Thanksgiving break we’ve ever had, and it’s OK to feel indifferent about it.
While the intentions behind the Campus Guardian program are good, there is one thing that would make the majority of the student body far more comfortable on campus: a program where students can request an escort home due to the uneasiness of being alone at night.
Yesterday, an article was published about Mexican food in Waco but then proceeded to mention a handful of places well within the Baylor bubble. Articles like this continue to further the stereotype that Waco has nothing to offer Baylor students, when even a cursory Google search would have pulled up an incredible number of local Mexican places.
All too often, you hear about students who are overextended, stressed and overall discontent with their experience, but do any of us do anything about it? I have the solution: Stop doing things you don’t like doing. Your decision will probably save you time, money and mental health.
Flexibility is something that people love, and podcasts can be paused or rewinded at someone’s own pace. Listening to a podcast at any time and place allows listeners to not have to set aside time to listen; it can be whenever they want to listen.
