Baylor’s not the only school in the country where volunteers line up to help new students move into their residence halls — but it’s hard to believe any school does it better.
Wednesday and Thursday, more than 3,000 new Baylor students (both freshmen and transfers) were helped into their new homes by some 3,200 faculty, staff and student volunteers — including President Linda Livingstone, who was out there both days carrying boxes and welcoming new members of the Baylor Family.
What does such service look like? Check out this photo gallery and these Facebook Live videos showing Move-In at South Russell and Martin halls — then share a word of thanks to the volunteers who made it all possible.
After students were all settled in their rooms, they and their families enjoyed one more meal together at the Baylor Family Picnic outside Allbritton House before saying their goodbyes. And with that, Welcome Week is officially underway!
Sic ’em, #BU23!
