Why I Teach
See More Profiles"I teach and NSE course because I so appreciate our students and want them to reach their potential and succeed... and I feel I know what it takes to be successful... and I want to share those thoughts and experiences with our students first hand."
Ben Kelley
Professor of Mechanical Engineering, School of Engineering & Computer Science
"I have always loved teaching first-year students, especially in their first semester. They are eager to learn, eager to work, and eager to think in new ways."
Lynne Hinojosa, Ph.D
Assistant Professor of English, Honors Program
"I do NSE because Baylor did it for ME when I was a freshmen from a small central Texas high school, first in my family to attend college, and wondering what in the world God had called me to do."
Randy M. Wood, Ph.D.
Professor, Curriculum and Instruction
