I have been accepted to Baylor and TCU. I like Waco but a concerned and I’m pretty politically conservative. I am from New York, upper-middle class, a Republican and Catholic. But, like all types of people. QUESTION: I have a concern about Baylor, is it very religious and anti-drinking. I"m not a big party guy, but want a be able to drink beers and dance on a Friday or Saturday night without being judged by really uptight super religious Bible Thumper types. A girl I spoke to from Connecticut told me she was drinking a bottle a wine with friends in her dorm room and the room mate report them to the RA. The RA called the police and they all got a $500. fine and 8 hours of public service because they are under 21. She transferred out. Is it really this uptight about booze?
The no alcohol on campus policy is one that Baylor takes very seriously.
Is there a good bit of drinking that goes on off campus? Yes. Less than many if not most colleges, but still quite a bit.
Even being on campus under the influence after you drank somewhere else can yield pretty big disciplinary problems.
