Tax policy has been a focal point in this election, with both candidates claiming their proposals “strengthen the middle class”. Much of the debate last Wednesday involved criticisms of the opponent’s tax policy.

As students, when we come to Baylor we are expected to be offered a wide array of amenities and facilities to support not only our learning, but our passions as well as well. For the most part, we have to commend Baylor for providing some awesome things. But, they fall short in one small and often-overlooked category — horses.

While Baylor does have a fantastic equestrian team, there are no equestrian facilities for any other use than official equestrian team activities.

The Baylor football team’s recent loss to West Virginia has brought a very important issue to light.

Baylor is going to lose games.

We have in the past — even under RGIII — and we will in the future.

Fortunately we have not had to face a loss at home in over a year and there is no reason to expect that we will lose at home this year, but a home loss will come.

I’ve lost loved ones, but I’ve never had to go through what the Ledet family is facing right now.

A plane crash over the weekend took the lives of Leonard Ledet, 60, his 62-year-old brother, Gregory Ledet, and his sons, Mason Ledet and Paul Ledet.

They were on their way to the Texas A&M game against Ole Miss.

Most of us have it — in the form of student aid, though we have yet to feel the effects. In fact, outstanding student loans in the U.S. equal a total of more than $1 trillion. Baylor is an expensive school – many of us are undoubtedly contributing to that sum.

Let me just say that love and agreeing are two totally different aspects of life. I may disagree with my family on occasion, but I don’t love them any less.

Some people would argue that because I disagree with someone that means I don’t support that person—some would go so far as to say I’ve expressed dislike of the person because of my disagreement.
