In a recent conference, Vice President of Student Life Dr. Sharra Hynes noted that Baylor not only welcomed one of its academically strongest freshmen classes, but also “the largest number of international students that we’ve ever had in an undergraduate class.”
“I appreciate it a lot more, because I’m getting to be a part of the hard work instead of just having it done for me,” Everitt said. “I think it was a good experience and a good way to meet the other people in our hall.”
Given the upcoming general election in the United States, Self said now is the time that students can learn about the importance of voting on a smaller scale at school, so that their voice can be heard both on campus as well as at the local, state and federal levels.
Associate director of new student programs Keane Tarbell said the “H Crew” offers customer service to attendees of Orientation and Line Camp, so new students and their families feel a warm welcome to Baylor.
