University Parks Drive reopened to traffic Thursday, after four years of shifting detours from Franklin Avenue to Interstate 35.

Baylor President Linda Livingstone on May 2 announced the decision to demolish the 1894 structure at 1313 S. Eighth Street, making room for future development.

"We saw what was going on at universities around the United States and we felt like it would be a good idea to stand in solidarity with them,"

Katy senior Brenna Colihan made an Instagram post on April 24 that included a four-page essay on her frustration at the relocation. She also posted the results of an anonymous survey of over 100 people in the Baylor community, which showed negative sentiments toward the decision among the respondents.

The hold-up comes from a congressional overhaul made to the FAFSA to make it easier to use. While current Baylor students are not expected to be affected, the application’s overhaul has caused a delay in when universities actually receive it, causing issues for prospective students. In a normal timeline, the FAFSA first opens in October and universities would be able to receive them later that month.
