What is good at A&M?

Coffee and bagels.

I assume you mean Texas A&M.

Nothing.

If you are thinking about gonig there, don't. Texas, TCU, and SMU should be your options if you are wanting to stay within the state.

Seconded whole-heartedly (although I'd add Baylor to the list...because...I'm a little biased).

But don't join the A&M cult.

Unless you have a thing for sheep in the Biblical sense.

Then you might be a perfect fit there. But I digress.

As a member of the Texas A&M 'cult', I deeply crushed by your comments, NOT!!!

But, seriously, TAMU is the best quality education you can receive for your buck. Also, our class ring is recognized and respected the world over. When people notice my Aggie ring, I get better service, and once, I got out of a ticket.


GIG 'EM!!!!!

[shinerbock]

I agree, gig em. In Scott Van Pelt's phrasing, I lost my virginity to Ga Tech, Auburn is my wife, and TAMU is my mistress.

I get out of tickets by telling people who my dad is.

........I kid, I kid.

Baylor?

Baylor is the fallback for kids who coudln't get into A&M or Texas but whose Mommy and Daddy have money. If they dont' have money, they end up at Tech or Texas State.

Greek Life in Texas? t.u., SMU, A&M, TCU Tech

Education? Rice, t.u.-A&M, SMU

Overall College experience? A&M, t.u., Tech. Although I will say that the student body at A&M has become much less special and unique since Bonfire fell in '99. In 20 years those that aren't from A&M families or CTs will be just as ordinary as those hippies down in Austin.

You have got to be kidding me. Texas A&Ms Greek Life is sub par compared to us, SMU, TCU, and even Tech. KA and some SAEs are the only bastion of frattiness that exists in College Station.

As far as education........if you want your kid to be a dorky applied sciences major.......then send him to Rice. That is the only thing going for it. Business, Law, medicine, or engineering......go to Texas.

...says the former aggie.

Baylor was a first choice for me. Loved the campus, the history, and the honors program I'm in ('cause I'm a little bit of a nerd and that's how I roll).

We're smarter than the aggies and better-looking than everybody else. Never mind the fact that it's a crazy church school that's uptight about everything from drinking to dudes in the dorms. (Hey, we're loosening up...I have visiting hours everyday now! ZXAlum said she only got weekends for dudes!)


...but yeah. No way in hell would I join a cult. I take being in the cult town of Wacko over actually being in a cult any day. Plus the dudes here may be few and far between, but at least the ones who are here prefer women over sheep (sometimes men over women though...sad times for single stef the pef).

Wow, the delicious irony of someone that goes to a Baptist school and is Greek throwing out the cult word. Why is A&M a cult? Our rituals? Traditions? Our school specific vocabulary? The universal bond between Aggies? All of these are charges that could be leveled at mainstream religions or even Greek Orgs.

Sheep bestiality? That's all you got? Yeah, I guess you can go to Baylor, where to blow off steam from their horrendous Athletic programs, baseball players go out killing and skinning cats for fun. Your choice

Baylor.....we're only in the Big XII cause Ann Richards was Gov. in 96

[Stef the Pef]

Hahahahaha.

At least we lose with pride. And only 40% of the campus is nutty baptist.

A&M is a cult. Period. Write it off as "school spirit" all you want, but to the rest of the world, these fellas look ridonkulous:



(well, seeing as that's the corps, perhaps the better wording would be "you have a cult and why on earth are you proud of that?!")
