That is not the Fellows way. Fellows maximize the academic experience, while still fully engaging in the life of the University. Over the years, Fellows have served as Student Regent; as Internal Vice President, External Vice President, and President of Student Government; as Presidents of the Freshmen, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior classes; as presidents, Sing chairs, and other officers of fraternities and sororities; as presidents of the premed honor societies, of the BRH choir, of the Baylor Men’s Choir, and of the Mock Trial Team. Fellows have served as Welcome Week leaders and Community Leaders in dorms; worked on campus and off; dated (and married); gone on mission trips with Baylor and with their churches; worked with youth groups; led Steppin' Out; participated in varsity athletics, club sports, and intramurals; performed in choirs, bands, and orchestras; taken internships across the United States and abroad; presented research at national conferences . and we are leaving out a whole lot.
