“The Daily Grind” with Brittany Gamlen
College students are known for becoming wrapped up in their own lives, and failing to acknowledge there is a world that exists outside of the Baylor bubble. Even so, it is important to stay involved in with current issues because even if they are not affecting you now, they might in the future. This column looks at issues that are currently happening locally, nationally, or globally, and explains why you should care and how they may directly impact your life.
“Out of Wac” with Nikki Thompson
Part of being a BIC student is being informed of what is going on around us. “Out of Wac” focuses on local issues, including socioeconomic inequality, homelessness, and food insecurity in the city of Waco. I address not only the issues, but also local organizations which are working to help improve our city.
“Hardly Shining” with Veronica Meredith
Unfinished sketches of characters keep coming to life in Gracie’s apartment building. Her faceless villain is her roommate and she keeps finding the work of other artists wandering around. She can only sit back passively eating junk food for so long.

“The BICer Picture” with Delaney Shiu
There are many health concerns in the world that people, especially in the “Baylor Bubble,” don’t really think about, such as the health problems that come with the damage from natural disasters. The point of this column is to highlight some of those concerns and ways to help such as where to send donations or specific organizations that deal with the aftermath of a public health crisis.

“Musings on Human Rights” with Katie Mendez

The news is constantly full of new scientific discoveries that could change the way we view the world. I will be looking at these scientific discoveries from a BIC perspective, discussing the history of the field, the ethics, and the worldview implications of scientific progress.
“Like It, Love It, List It” with Bethany Dickerson
This is where lists live. I love to write; it helps me get all of thoughts on paper. Lists help with this because they keep things organized and it is especially satisfying to cross things off the list. If you agree, I encourage you to take these lists into consideration and enjoy!
