As a former member of the Baylor Lariat staff and a proud graduate of Bay- lor 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 audi- ence. With our friends 90 miles down the Brazos making a decision that could af- fect all of us, our administration is work- ing tirelessly to ensure the long-term vi- sion and mission of Baylor University. We must also do our part, and I am not talking about lobbying or contacting your representatives. This Friday each and ev- ery person on this beautiful campus has an obligation to show our national audi- ence exactly who we are. Every student, faculty member and campus organization needs to be at Floyd Casey Stadium in full force. We all need to show up early, stay late and make a lot of noise. President Ken Starr, Ian McCaw and their admin- istration have made every effort to posi- tively change the atmosphere surround- ing game day. I have seen Baylor Nation support all of our athletic programs, and this week you can show the nation. Tonight we will be hosting one of our oldest rivals, the TCU Horned Frogs. They will be coming into Waco as a ranked team looking to make a statement, and they will have their purple-clad fans with them. Coach Art Briles and his staff have been preparing all year for our team to take the next step. The student athletes have been working hard and pouring their hearts and souls into Baylor Univer- sity, and it all comes together today. There should not be an empty seat in the house for this game as we showcase our university to the nation. We need to show the passion, pride and love we have for our university, chartered in 1845 by BGCT must explain fund-cutting the Republic of Texas.
