A new semester is upon us, and just as Baylor’s campus and students are going through changes, The Baylor Lariat is shaking things up as well. We promise to continue to deliver the news that you want to read, but we are no strangers to the changing times.
The fact of the matter is that the way that people consume news has reformed.
No longer do readers grab a newspaper, pull up a comfortable chair and dive in.
The people that care about what is going on are busy, and the news needs to fit this fast-paced lifestyle.
At this year’s annual Texas Intercollegiate Press Association convention on April 4-6 in Fort Worth, The Baylor Lariat, the Round Up yearbook, Focus magazine and the Lariat Online won 70 awards in dozens of categories.
The Baylor Lariat, Round Up yearbook and Focus magazine are accepting applications for all positions for the 2013-2014 school year.
Student Publications director Paul Carr said the hours a student will work will depend upon the position for which the applicant is hired.
Because of the collaborative efforts of the Texas Collection and the Baylor Electronic Library, anyone can take a stroll down Baylor’s historic line.
In celebration of homecoming, the Texas Collection will showcase six to seven pages from The Baylor Lariat and a number of special pages of the Round Up yearbook focusing on past homecomings at Baylor.
The display will be open from 8 a.m. to noon Friday and Saturday after the homecoming parade, which lasts from 8 to 11 a.m. and will end in front of Carroll Library where the Texas Collection is housed.
John Wilson, director of the Texas Collection, said the display will include old football programs and information about the Baylor homecoming traditions that were observed in the past.
Baylor student publications have been honored with 38 national awards in the last year.
Sepia-tinted photographs and yellowed newspaper clippings are not only part of one Wacoan’s personal history, but also that of the journalism, public relations and new media department.
More than 100 years of Baylor history recorded in the Baylor Lariat are being archived and digitized for reader’s convenience. The Baylor Lariat project is collaboration between the Texas Collection, the Digitization Projects Group and the Baylor Student Publications.
As a former member of the Baylor Lariat staff and a proud graduate of Baylor University, I am writing this letter to all members of the Baylor family. Today will be one of the biggest moments for our university in a long time, and thanks to ESPN, we will have a national audience. With our friends 90 miles down the Brazos making a decision that could affect all of us, our administration is working tirelessly to ensure the long-term vision and mission of Baylor University.
So you picked up a copy of the Lariat. The front page had some interesting stories, there’s nothing else to do in class and you chose to flip to the opinion section. Before you turn any further, you should know who’s in charge of leading the Lariat this year.
Somebody once said that realizing we are broken is the beginning of healing. Or at least that is what I read in Donald Miller’s book “Father Fiction” while on a plane over Easter break.
