“What always resonated in my mind is what my father told me, and that is make sure that you focus on your goal, your objective, and that is to graduate and get out of there,” Baylor alumnus Michael Heiskell said. “Don’t be sidelined by others who may try to divert your attention or distract you from that purpose and goal.”
While every act feels brand new every year, Sing stands on decades of choreography notes, costume sketches, rehearsal photos and late-night practices that came before it.
As the walls of Waco Hall begin to echo with songs and dancing, campus gears up for All-University Sing 2026. While opening night promises entertainment and dramatic reveals, what goes unnoticed is the real cost behind producing it all.
For decades, Greek organizations have dominated Baylor’s All-University Sing placements — and student leaders point to factors ranging from organizational size to built-in audience support as possible reasons why.

ARTS & LIFE
A great playlist combines two things — diversity and vibes. Whether you’re waking up at 5 a.m. to throw candy off the side of a float or enjoying the game from the comfort of your couch, it’s crucial to have the right tunes for homecoming.
Black History Month means something different for every American. For some, it means remembering ancestors who suffered on our soil. For others, it could mean uplifting friends who may not share the same generational history, but share a similar commitment to equal opportunities for all people.
The Daily Beast and The Daily Wire are slowly taking the place of The Daily Planet. Our generation is responsible for this. We are watching and overseeing the end of an era as mainstream media sources are being edged out because of our embrace of social media.
Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, and we could all use a little sweet treat in our lives. Whether you’re gifting candy to your significant other or looking for a treat to enjoy yourself, some candies make better gifts than others.
You shouldn’t be paying an extra $15-30 per month to watch a couple of games a month. Spend that time watching your team at any place, like a restaurant, that plays live sports. Sports, in its existence, was something to be enjoyed by groups of people together — it’s not an exclusive individual hobby.
There are heroes and villains in this world. Russia and other totalitarian states are embroiled in corruption, countless unreported atrocities and general malpractice. We are right to distance ourselves from such antagonistic powers. But does knowing what makes a nation not good mean that we embody — let alone know — what makes one good?
We must not put more unfit people in power just because of the party they affiliate themselves with. To ensure a better future for America we must improve the system we have been given by voting for candidates based on their merit, not their party.
