WACO – The fight over embattled Baylor President Robert Sloan's future escalated Tuesday, as the faculty senate passed a motion voicing "no confidence" in Sloan.
A group billing itself as "Friends of Baylor" countered the senate action – academia's severest form of criticism – with the announcement that it has raised $300,000 for a public relations campaign to defend Sloan and the scandal-ridden university.
The opposing messages came amid mounting pressure from some circles for Sloan, who has headed the world's largest Baptist university for eight years, to step down.
