Bryan was the first female to re
ceive a degree. Her husband nev
er completed his A&M degree.
She was able to attend under
an exception that allowed rela
tives of professors to go to A&M.
(Her brother taught engineering.)
The first female to enter A&M
after the 1963 decision was Stel
la Haupt, a 56-year-old grand
mother.

Aggieland File Photo
president of student government
in 1982 and 1983, who planned to
attend Harvard Law School that
fall, said “she might have wanted
to run for student body president,
but A&M is not ready for that.”
Women have made great
strides at Texas A&M since 1963.
Brooke Leslie, Class of ’95 and
Laurie Nickel, Class of ’98, proved
that A&M is ready.
“In the past men may have
dominated. As a student coming
in in 1994, it was not even an is
sue,” Nickel said.
The Corps of Cadets has also
made advances in the acceptance
and integration of women.
The deputy Corps commander,
the second-highest ranking mem
ber of the Corps staff, is Kelly Gar-
rity, a senior journalism major.
“Every time we’ve changed,
it’s been something good for the
Corps,” she said. “A lot of cadets
adapt well to change, and I think
through the years, many more
outfits have become integrated.”
“Now it’s more the attitude of ‘if
you work hard enough, you will
make it.’ There are so many oppor
tunities in the Corps and the Uni
versity. If you put your heart in it,
you’re going to become a leader.”
Nickel said she sees women at
A&M on a level playing field as well.
“It has everything to do with
qualifications,” she said. “It’s the
result of how our generation
views it. If we love our institution
or organization, we want the best
person for the leadership role.”
Sherry Yennello, president of
the Women’s Faculty Network
and an associate professor of
chemistry, said she also recog
nizes the progress made at A&M.
“A&M has come a long way
with respect to women. It was a
few years back that for the first
time, the number of female stu
dents equaled the number of male
students,” she said.
“There are still opportunities to
make those kind of numbers in
terms of faculty.
A&M is making strides in hiring
assistant professors, but it will take
longer to get that parity in faculty. ”
The role of women at A&M is
best exemplified by their growing
enrollment. In 1963, 150 were ad
mitted; today women make up al
most half of the student population.
