Dr. Heidi Marcum has made a devotion to animals that many people would not consider. The Baylor professor is committed to rescuing any horse in need, leaving her with 40 equine companions to share her life with. Helping animals of such a grand stature does not come without challenges, she says. “Every time I despair or worry, something comes up. Something rescues me.”

It is apparent that there is no particular mold to describe every Baylor student. While campus is smack dab in the middle of the South, many have not experienced some of the quintessentially southern foods prevalent in these parts. The Lariat gave a group of students the opportunity to taste test some dishes. Whether they were good, bad or ugly, the reactions are priceless.

Waco is making a name for itself in the eclectic food culture that has become popular in Texas. Some restaurants are often overlooked, though, when considering the tastiest food in town. Take a gander through the Central Texas city as the Lariat brings you to some of the more deeply rooted Waco joints that are not only ingrained with culture but also some darn good food.
