It’s hard to imagine 2023 without long denim skirts and the resurgence of Adidas sneakers. These trends shaped our social media feeds and bank accounts, but they also affected our life at Baylor. With 2024 being barely a month in, here are the ins and outs for Baylor.

This is the one time in our lives when it’s OK — and, in fact, expected — to be selfish. No one is dependent on us.

It’s about growth. It’s about self-discovery. It’s about independence.

“City of Waco crews are on the Baylor campus to repair a city water main break on the east side of Pat Neff Hall (facing Waco Hall).

When Baylor opens its newest dining hall, East Village, in the fall of 2012, students might have to bid adieu to one of the current dining halls. At a March 27 town hall meeting, Baylor administrators told a group of students the university might close an existing dining hall after East Village Residential Community opens in August. The two dining halls considered for removal, said Dr. Jeff Doyle, dean for student learning and engagement, are Collins and Memorial. Penland would more likely receive a renovation, and Brooks would not close because of its importance to the Brooks community.
