The Face of Shame
- Guerin Emig: Ray of hope emerges from dark Baylor cloud... in Waco of all places | OU Sports Extra | tulsaworld.com, Here, at last, is a shred of hope, a saintly undertaking in a community bedeviled by scandal. “We signed a memorandum of understanding with Baylor University yesterday,” says Barbara Wright, executive director of the Advocacy Center for Crime Victims and Children. “If there is a student, faculty or staff member at Baylor that has been sexually assaulted and they don’t feel comfortable going to a counselor there for therapy, then they will be told about our agency and all of the services we have to offer. And they can come here and receive our services free. Plus we train volunteer advocates to go to the hospital with sexual assault survivors.”

That’s because her family told us that if her transcripts are not sent over to Baylor University by July her scholarship could be in jeopardy.
