Everyone has seen the billboards that say “#BaylorForward – Vote ‘Yes’ on September 7th” and received numerous emails from Baylor about a big vote.

President Ken Starr sent out an email, containing a video of himself, to all the students telling them how important traditions are to the country and the university. In that video, Starr erroneously compares the transition agreement between Baylor and the Baylor Alumni Association with the writing of the United States Constitution.

As the vote nears, some Baylor Alumni Association members expressed their concerns about losing the 154-year-old organization and their independent voice.

Thomas Nesbitt, who graduated from Baylor in 1994 and is a lifetime member of the BAA, said the Transition Agreement should not be passed.

“The Transition Agreement is bad for Baylor,” Nesbitt said. “It dissolves the 154-year-old alumni association.”
