"Transformational undergraduate education is something we've been doing at #Baylor really since the founding of the university. It's very core to who we are.

"It really means taking students as they come in, at whatever place in life they are, and giving them experiences that help them to grow and develop -- personally, professionally, and spiritually."

President Linda Livingstone shares what Illuminate, the university's academic strategic plan, means for undergraduate education at BU in the latest episode of the "Baylor Connections" podcast.
