Man that place. . . I can’t figure out if the environment there turns people into [ Arschloch]s, or if that’s just primarily who is attracted to being there in the first place.

Burn it down.
Too harsh? Fine, sell it to DBU for $1, re-named DBU South campus & medical school. Eliminate athletics department. Donate toilet bowl stadium to all area high schools.

And they can’t just fire anyone. Everything gets handled by the Star Chamber after a twelve month tribunal.

The timing of Baylor University's latest mess could not be any worse
By Big Steaming Pile
From a timeline standpoint, perhaps Baylor University was “due.”
In 2003, it was the Dave Bliss/Patrick Dennehy tragedy.
In 2015 to 2016, it was the Art Briles/football team Title IX/sexual assault allegation fiasco.
It’s 2025, just “in time” for another slew of negative headlines for the Baylor athletic department.
On Thursday, longtime Baylor athletic director Mack Rhoades stepped away from his spot as the chairman of the College Football Playoff selection committee because he is taking a leave of absence from the school while it investigates allegations against him.
One person familiar with the situation suggested that Rhoades will not be back, and that this will be a “housecleaning” for the Baylor athletic department. Head football coach Dave Aranda’s job security remains a point of concern, and speculation, within the Baylor community.
According to the Baylor communications department, the investigation started Nov. 10, and that the “leave of absence is anticipated to be around four weeks.”
Rhoades told ESPN that he initiated this leave. A source confirmed a report from Yahoo Sports!’ Ross Dellenger that allegations against Rhoades relate to Baylor’s faith-based university policies. That broad language would potentially allow a school to fire an employee with cause. Easily.

Baylor College of Medicine (BCM) has the same roots but is unrelated to Baylor University. Same can be said for Baylor Scott and White (formerly Baylor Health before merging with central Texas health system, Scott & White). They share some origin history, but have been separate for 4-6 decades.
BCM was the second medical school in Texas and was established in Dallas. When the Texas Medical Center opened in Houston, BCM moved to be a part of it. The remnant left behind (those who did not want to move) became Baylor Health and their hub hospital is Baylor University Medical Center. They grew to almost forty hospitals around DFW. They merged with Scott & White in about 2012 to become the largest not for profit hospital system in Texas.
To make matters even more confusing, Baylor College of Dentistry is part of the Texas A&M Health Science Center.
So, all of this to say, Baylor College of Medicine is unaffected by what happens at Baylor University.

No, Muck, they were confirmed crimes.
Which is why leadership of their Board of Regents pushed for his firing.
Well, he was also paid a big buyout. You'd think based on all the crimes that they wouldn't have had to so that. Hell, schools seemingly will try any angle to not have to pay buyouts.
There was a WHOLE LOT of guilty before being proven innocent and jumping to conclusions in that thing, relative to the football program.
