The ACCESS at Baylor Act, which will take effect at the start of the fall 2025 semester if approved, seeks to provide the university community with the Waco Transit System, and therefore have direct routes leading to off-campus academic buildings and other important locations throughout the city.

While student teachers are not able to administer the STAAR, they can help the students prepare by helping them with subjects that they know will most likely be on the STAAR. Another way the student teachers can help during test week is to encourage the students, as some students really struggle with test anxiety or academic pressure.

“Some of the Sawyer that we saw today was maybe the Sawyer from two years ago or further back,” head coach Dave Aranda said. “We’ve got to get the Sawyer that we’ve got now, we’ve got to get him back to himself as last year or the beginning of this year. That was not what was happening today.”

The shift away from celebrating Christ during Christmas isn’t accidental. It’s the result of a culture that increasingly prioritizes instant gratification, external displays of success and an artificial sense of joy over genuine spiritual reflection.

Being a stay-at-home mom is an often thankless job. These women put in hours of exhaustive and unpaid labor, yet the idea that they don’t “work” is still rampant.
