<span style="font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: black;">As we continue building momentum around the upcoming football season and leaning into the Fan First Era, I want to personally invite each of you to join us this Saturday for Baylor
Fan Fest at McLane Stadium. This is one of our first major touchpoints with fans this spring, and it’s important that we show up in a meaningful way—open, accessible, and centered around the Baylor community.</span></p>
