Every year the Baylor Band and Orchestra goes on a trip where they can flaunt their musical talents and visit local attractions. This year, the group visited New York City.
United States educational institutions have finally begun to rid themselves of the infectious disease known as “zero-tolerance.” Where will Baylor stand in this process?
Since the 2011-2012 school year, the College Board has enforced its redesigned AP program in three major subject areas: science, history, and world languages. How do these redesigns affect us in Baylor?
It's Thursday, and A period has just ended. Everyone pulls out their iPads to see where they are headed for the next period of the day. Scrambling to our leadership groups or wellness speakers, we, unenthusiastically, make our way to Colloquium.
With a margin as small as 2.8% of the popular vote and as large as 23.4% of the electoral college, Obama won the 2012 Presidential Election. With his re-election, what can we expect?
In this first Ask Eugene column, I address students’ concern about how to prepare for standardized tests such as the SAT and ACT.

Less than forty days remain before the class of 2012 graduates on the first day of June. For many seniors, this commencement marks the final occasion in which they and their Baylor peers will intentionally rendezvous—or so they hope. However, the notoriously fickle brain often changes opinions and rejiggers memories, and in a few years, many members of this graduating class will reminisce about their Baylor experience and yearn to reconnect with their peers, especially those who have long since scattered to the four corners of the world.
