I did not intend to insinuate that they were the same. Indeed, they are not.

The point is that it appears that each institution gets to decide whether a health sciences center is part of the main institution or a separate entity.

And with a list of institutions, one never knows who decided to include health sciences and who did not.

Thus, rather that pondering the administrative structure of Baylor, I had hoped to point out that my metric was not perfectly reliable.

So including Baylor College of Medicine as a "Big 12" institution is incorrect. Baylor University (Waco) is the only institution affiliated with the Big 12.
