The Daily Caller reports:
Largest Christian University In Texas Running 22 Diversity ProgramsThere’s no shortage of diversity initiatives at Texas’s Baylor University, which holds the distinction of being the largest Christian university in the Lone Star state.The College Fix reports that the Waco, Texas academic institution has 22 diversity programs now running — an accomplishment that only took Baylor one year to achieve.
