MANOR EAST MALL
An Open Letter to High School Juniors and Seniors:
In selecting a college, what are your main considerations: A winning football team?
A lot of parties? A continuation of high school?
Or do you want a quality education, a real step forward to emotional and
educational maturity, and a school you can be proud of for the rest of your life?
Texas A&M is such a university. An individual can come to Aggieland and get any
kind of degree. Among the colleges on campus are engineering, agriculture, business
administration, liberal arts, science, education, architecture and environmental design,
geosciences, and veterinary medicine.
The discipline involved in these studies, the faculty, administration, and the entire
atmosphere breed maturity. And try to find an Aggie who isn't proud to say where he's
from. Have you ever seen a former student who didn't flash his ring when asked where he
went to college?
A&M has been the subject of many good-natured jokes and jeers, but the scales are
tipped the other way by many positive facts. Consider these: the only institution in the
state that is sea-going (Texas Maritime Academy), the largest cyclotron in the Southwest,
one of the busiest and most powerful nuclear reactors on a campus in the nation,
computer facilities which give A&M the largest memory unit of any Southwest
educational institution, master's degrees in 100 fields and Ph.D.'s in over 60, extensive
overseas programs, the major source of medical and dental students in the Southwest,
enrollment of one of every 10 Americans studying veterinary medicine, and a list of
distinguished graduates that won't stop.
Spirit. That's a big word around here. Some others fill the vocabulary, too. Unity.
Excellence. Pride. Friendliness. Tradition. Change. Campus rest (as opposed to unrest).
These and others tell the story of A&M.
Where else can one go where, instead of riots and marches on the administration,
there are two massive yell practices per week supporting the football team, even though
we were 2-9? Where else does one hear a friendly "Howdy” from everyone they pass on
campus? These things are part of A&M. As a student in college, one should have pride in
what makes up his school. This is Aggieland, and this is what A&M stands for.
So, if important items on your list of goals are good education, pride in where you
are, and unity and maturity, try Texas A&M University. If you are a senior, there is still
time to make the decision. As a junior, you have more time to consider . . . Think about
it.
