Dear Colleagues,
This has been an exciting start to the 2023-2024 academic year, as we watch our students settle into another semester and celebrate incredible milestones in the hiring of new faculty and the opening of the Mark and Paula Hurd Welcome Center.
As we welcome new members into the Retired Professors and Administrators program, it is heartening to see the enthusiasm with which these Baylor retirees join, seeking ways to remain connected to this university and our alumni and students. This new cohort includes many Baylor legends, with tenures ranging from 21 to 47 years of service at the university! What an incredible legacy of commitment and service. There is a reason that our faculty remain so connected and involved here at Baylor, and we are grateful to each of you who seek out connection through this special program. We hope you know we are grateful for you.
You're invited to join the community of retired Baylor professors and administrators for our Fall Luncheon!
