Recap: Student Union at the 2015 Russell Athletic Bowl

We gave the “keys” to our Instagram account to Emily Beggs for the 2015 Russell Athletic Bowl. She gave a Baylor student’s perspective before, during, and after the game with her Instagram takeover.  It ended up being a high scoring affair between Baylor and North Carolina.  This is what she captured during the Bears’ victorious bowl trip to Orlando, FL.
