The biggest movie in 2026 has been “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” from Marvel Studios, which has made just over $1.2 billion since being released July 31. It’s a blueprint for success in the film industry.

Welcome back to campus, Bears. We are so glad you are here. Whether today is your first day at Baylor or you’ve done this a few times, we hope your first day of classes goes well. The Baylor Lariat’s editorial board is made up of a group of Lariat editors who meet each week to discuss the issues, events and conversations shaping the Baylor community and beyond. Our goal is to write on issues and events we believe are relevant to our readers.

The quiet worker who excels in certain tasks? The Swiss Army knife? There are endless professional personas to choose from, and you’ve probably only considered this concept in the past three months. So it’s perfectly okay to feel a bit out of body for the summer. But don’t let it discourage or embarrass you.

Social media is packed with more teens and young adults making content about Jesus and going to church. Christian music from young artists is even making its way into pop radio.
