Think of it as a second chance.

It could be a friend, a business associate, even a beloved sibling or spouse. They are special to you. But they didn't go to Baylor.

They love the green and gold. They cheer the Bears to victory. They even accompany you on trips to Waco for Homecoming. They believe in the university and what she stands for. They show commitment and care for Baylor but with no official ties to the university, still feel like outsiders looking in.

You can change all that.

To nominate your Bear-to-be, simply click on this link: Nomination Form. Make sure to include specific ways your nominee has supported Baylor. You must be a Baylor graduate to make a nomination.

Examples include:

• Time invested with Baylor
• Support provided to family members who attend or have attended Baylor
• Volunteerism
• Employment at Baylor
• Support for athletics
• Financial Commitment to Baylor and her students

If selected, the Baylor Alumni Network will designate these devoted Baylor fans as "Alumni by Choice" honor them, and present them with official "Alumni by Choice" decrees.

The program began in 1986. Decrees are given at an annual ceremony.

Our next event will be on Aug. 18, 2018.
