McLane, Dr. Pepper, and ring by spring are just a few things Baylor is known for. But it's so much more. Here are some of the things that mold Baylor into what it is today.

Baylor is...

1. Mentioning 61-58 to every TCU fan you know.
2. Secretly envying the athletes' hoverboards.
3. Trying to swipe into the study rooms in Foster, even though you're not a business student. It was worth the try.
4. Wondering exactly what Penland will be like when it's co-ed. (Will it still be nasty?)
5. Obnoxiously using "sic 'em" as a verb.
6. Being disappointed that SUB dinners don't actually consist of dinner.
7. Spending all your money at Common Grounds. (Cowboy coffee, anyone?)
8. Going to a party where they serve Kool-Aid. And it's actually just Kool-Aid.
9. Being annoyed that "ring by spring" is a thing. But secretly wanting it to be a reality for you.
10. Going to check on Joy and Lady every once in awhile.
11. Questioning what "we'll fling our green and gold afar" actually means.
12. Spending four years trying to get that one pic with Ken Starr.
13. Tossing tortillas onto a cement block to determine your singleness/marriageability. Sounds logical enough.
14. Taking the scenic route to class just to walk past Patt Neff. No shame, it's beautiful.
15. Being grateful that wearing a t-shirt to class everyday is the norm.
16. Sailgating. Yes, it's kind of like tailgating.
17. Eating at Memo just for Ms. Mae's cookies.
18. Freaking out when the whole student body tries to get football tickets at the same time.
19. Having a sense of school pride every night Patt Neff glows green.
20. Running the Baylor line and proudly wearing that obnoxiously bright yellow jersey freshman year.
21. Spending Mondays and Wednesdays with Chapel Ryan, Carlos, and Bert Burleson freshman year.
22. Wondering why sorority girls wear jerseys once a week. Let's face it, it's kind of odd.
23. Getting way too excited to yell "kill, kill, kill, kill" at football games.
24. Spending hours preparing for your sorority/fraternity's SING act. And then another couple hours discussing the different ones afterwards. The competition is real.
25. Going to Dr. Pepper hour every Tuesday. (If you don't do this, you're missing out).
26. Being eternally grateful that Baylor has its own holiday—Diadeloso—because it means one less day of class.
27. Eating at BJ's for every birthday and formal because it's the only "nice" restaurant in Waco.
28. Planning your route to class around the giant gated off construction site in the middle of campus. (Will the fountain ever get finished?)
29. Realizing that the camp counselor stereotype is actually reality. (Chacos, Nalgenes, ENOs, and all).
30. Knowing that there's no place you'd rather be.
