look up any word:
1. Louisiana
Louisiana has some of the nicest people I've ever seen. I'm from North Louisiana and I've traveled alot. I'm used to waving to people and getting a wave back, only in Louisiana. That's southern generosity for you :) Nothing like nice Southern people with funny accents. So if your visiting Louisiana, don't be afraid to wave to us, We'll wave right back and problaby strike up a conversation with you that consists of more knowledge about our personal lives than you ever wanted to know.
Northerner: *wave
Louisianian: *wave, How are you today?
N: Very well
L: well me too! Are you hungry? Im makin some dinner if you'd like to eat with us tonight!
N: *so taken aback, his head explodes

Thats that southern Generosity from Louisiana for you!
2. Baylor University
Founded in 1845, it is the oldest university in Texas still operating under its original name, the oldest in Texas is Southwestern. Founded on Southern Baptist ideals, it has developed into a Doctoral granting institution consistently ranked as one of America's top 100 universities.It is one of the last institutions of Higher Learning in the World that still holds that both Faith and Knowledge can go hand in hand.
There are many sons and daughters of the wealthy, but Baylor's generosity in financial aid has balanced the student population into a more diverse institution economically and racially. Recently, Baylor has gone through a period of rapid expansion and is making great strides to become a Tier 1 University. It hat also managed to have great success with athletics (barring Football). All of this without compromising the core integrity if its Christian values.
Many argue that Waco is the worst college town in the Big 12 conference, and there is more to substantiate that than not. However, many students who attend Baylor choose to define themselves and their college experience as greater than a drunken stooper. I personally have seen the Baylor students take the initiative to help and love the Waco population more so than I have seen anywhere else.
So, if you define yourself as a Temperate, loving person who would rather take a weekend to take care of the poor rather than get wasted at a party, then come to Baylor.
