Eleven Types of People You Meet at Baylor

***These groups and their examples do not represent everyone in the title and are an over exaggeration and generalization about a common theme. This is not meant to make fun of anyone or any certain group here at Baylor.***


1. The Christian Hipster.

This type of Baylor student is the one everyone wants to call a friend so badly due to their kindness and rad photography skills. They are constantly talking about how faithful God has been in providing them a “community." They also talk a lot about how they "pursue God" and are patiently waiting on someone to "pursue" them.

Positives: Loyal friends who can take a good profile picture for you; they encourage you when you are down.

Negatives: They ask you to join their bible study maybe a little too often; they try to encourage you when you just want to be alone.

Last Seen: Common grounds, Antioch

Commonly says: "So beyond blessed to be a part of such an authentic community." "I just want a spouse who pursues me and Jesus Christ."


2. Obnoxious Sorority Girl.

This type of Baylor student is a beautiful young lady who has a great social life and easy major. Somehow she always finds herself on the back of some dudes moped. You can find her in Club Moody or Jones distracting the ones trying to study, as she wears her letters everywhere possible. Thursday she will be at Austin's, Sunday at Church. In the fall she will be found at U-Swirl with freshmen girls.

Positives: Energetic and joyful spirit; she always can make you laugh.

Negatives: Questionable desire for “Mrs." degree; sometimes too loud.

Last Seen: Blue Bonnets

Commonly says: "Ugh I want to go to songs practice but I have a birthday dinner tonight!" "T-shirt or cute tonight?"


3. Cali Clan.

These type of Baylor students are the students who share the home state of California. Some of the most beautiful humans on Baylor's campus with their not-always-brushed-perfectly hair, tan skin, and striking features. They stick out for their beauty yet intrigue you with their chillness.

Positives: Chill personality; Beautiful Looks

Negatives: You may become envious of their looks; they also always compare Texas to California which is just not okay.

Last seen: On Instagram with a throwback picture on the beach telling the world how much they miss California.

Commonly says: "Whataburger is nothing compared to In-N-Out."


4. Camp Counselor.

This type of Baylor student can be found ENOing in the sub bowl wearing their Chacos, Patagonia shorts, and trying to convince you every day to apply to their camp for the “best summer of your life." They post pictures often of their cool handwriting and some bible verse, and wear an animal face shirt occasionally, but usually on "Wildlife Wednesday."

Positives: Spouse material

Negatives: Still posts camp pictures on social media 9 months later.

Last seen: ENOing or with their camp in the sub passing out flyers for “the best job ever."

Commonly says: "I just love how intentional she is about the relationships she forms."


5. Texas-Obsessed Group.

This group of Baylor is very common. They own Texas flag shorts, shirts, posters, and never fail to mention that they were born and raised in Texas. They act as if Texas is its own country because it once was and they don't let you forget it. Many are from an area known as "Highland Park."

Positives: Good line dancers and they help you adjust to the Texas way of life.

Negatives: Have never left Texas and probably never will; while still at Baylor they have the same best friends from middle school.

Last Seen: Wild West

Commonly says: "Texas really was once their own country and could be if they ever wanted to!" "You do know the Bushes are from Texas right?"


6. Future Presidents of the US.

These people at Baylor somehow manage to be involved in every political debating organization at Baylor (which is a lot) while running for a class officer position. 9/10 times they are ultra conservative. They are known for their debates that start with a Facebook status.

Positives: Driven, hard-working

Negatives: Makes every conversation a debate

Last Seen: With their face on a fancy expensive banner on fountain mall

Commonly say: "God bless the GOP," "Thanks Obama..", "Rand Paul or Rubio."


7. The Twins.

Current Baylor students don't need a definition of this rare species at Baylor; two Baylor girls who are identical twins who match their outfit completely and walk with the same foot forward.

Positives: It is actually kinda cool, they seem sweet

Negatives: Even after nine months of college, no one knows why they match

Last Seen: On Baylor Snaps

Commonly says: they don't actually say that much...


8. Belongs in the SEC.

Usually an out-of-stater who came to Baylor for the Christian community yet now regrets it due to realizing the judgement sometimes developed on drinking. Talks about how things are so different at their state college back home and how football is way better.

Positives: Have funny stories from home

Negatives: Drink too much; forgets that Baylor is a Baptist University.

Last Seen: Visiting other schools, RTing Ole Row when that isn't a thing here.

Commonly says: "Why don't we have greek houses?"


9. The Frat boy.

This type of Baylor student can be rocking a tank wearing a sorority girl's letters that he probably begged his girl (who's a friend) for. He finds every excuse to use the frat snap and casually show his Rolex on his right wrist. He still talks about how awesome spring break was to this day. They make great friends but wait on the serious relationship with them; they take patience.

Positives: Makes you laugh; attractive

Negatives: Head gets big after his car gets letters on it; probably not suitable for anything more than a friendship till maybe sophomore year second semester.

Last seen: yellowaracadebrickdogmissionaguriumshabloomsbarn

Commonly says: "What's the move tonight?"


10. High School Hero.

This type of Baylor student was a big deal back in the glory days of their high school years and never forgets to remind everyone. Chances are they have a lot of followers and get a lot of likes when no one here fully understands why.

Positives: If they post a picture with you, you get random followers from their hometown fans.

Negatives: They are still stuck in high school.

Last seen: Visiting home football games in the fall every weekend

Commonly says: "This one time in high school..."


11. The Odyssey Writer.

Usually an over bubbly girl who is way too obsessed with her social media account. She laughs more at her own jokes than anyone else ever laughs at her jokes. Strongly opinionated.

Positives: bold, outgoing

Negatives: always bugging you to share her article

Last Seen: her last Instagram post; she Instagrams her life.

Commonly says: "Please SHARE my post if you enjoy my article!"

^Those girls are the worst of them all.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
