Winter 2024 | The Big Picture
Featuring “It Begins with a Ring,” “Losing Faith in College | The Cost of College: Tuition,” “Her Name Was Cindy Campbell Brown,” and “A Marriage of True Minds”
Our First Issue In Two Years…
Say hello to the latest Baylor Line — a culmination and celebration of the exciting variety of articles we published in 2024. Two years ago, The Baylor Line chose to take a break from a traditional print magazine, in order to focus on fine tuning our digital publishing. We think two years is long enough and we’re so excited for you to see our fresh-off-the-press digital magazine. We hope you’ll flip through and enjoy the range of stories. Below, find links to the original stories from earlier in the year. We’ll be back with so much more in 2025. Be along for the ride by subscribing (for free!) to a newsletter or two.
