About Us
Our History
The Baylor Black Alumni Alliance began as the Baylor Black Alumni Club, chartered in 1985 by a group of students who wanted to continue their Baylor experience beyond the halls of Pat Neff. We are committed to the same morals and values that Baylor was founded upon.
The Baylor Black Alumni Alliance response to the Baylor University Board of Regents' Resolution on Racial Healing and Justice.
Our Mission
Our mission is to aid and support Baylor University in its endeavors to improve and promote the matriculation of African-American scholars and to encourage the active participation of its African-American alumni.
