Baylor University admission services will host prospective students and their parents during Sic 'Em Day from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday, Oct. 9, on the Baylor campus. Approximately 130 students are expected to attend.

Sic 'Em Day is a weekday visit opportunity for students who are unable attend one of Baylor's premiere events during the fall, winter or spring. While Sic 'Em Day is not as in-depth as a premiere event, it still provides students with a comprehensive feel of what student life is like at Baylor.

Sic 'Em Day will begin with registration and an opening session. Next, students will meet with Baylor admission counselors and then have a chance to discuss campus life with current students. After lunch in a campus dining facility, students and their parents will take a tour of campus and hear from Baylor professors during afternoon academic sessions.

Monday's Sic 'Em Day will be the first of five that Baylor admission services will present. Other Sic 'Em Days are scheduled for Nov. 20, Jan. 15, March 12 and March 16. Registration will be available for these events approximately two months before each event is scheduled to take place.

"Sic 'Em Days are a great opportunity for students to get a feel for the heart of Baylor University," said senior admissions counselor David Shankle. "We try to offer more than just the typical campus tour."
