the audience. “You may face preju
dice, but you have to forgive people
for their ignorance.”
Participants in the audience
spoke on indirect attacks of racism,
such as messages on bathroom
stalls and Confederate flags on the
bumpers of many Aggies vehicles.
James encouraged students to
use such opportunities to educate
their peers.
“Sometimes we can be ignorant,
too,” James said. “We may very
well be their first cultural experi
ence. Don’t be the ignorant black
person.”
“The majority of problems that 1
hear aren't academic, but in how
people handle their relationships,”
said Regan Miller, a senior biomed
ical science major.
Despite the present condition,
A&M’s Vision 2020 plan calls for
increased diversification and glob
alization of the student body.
“Texas A&M University must at

turally and geographically diverse fac
ulty, staff and student body,” according
to the plans’ goal for diversity.
Barry Hammond, a sophomore
finance major, told the audience
how leaders need to define and rep
resent their actions and beliefs.
“Because there are so few of us,
you must excel in everything you
do,” Hammond said. “You can’t
change the situation, but you can
change the outcome. You must rep
resent your culture well every sin
gle day. You must have strong com
munication skills or your message
is lost.”
April Young, a juniorjournalism
major, stressed the need to build co
hesion among the African-Ameri
can students on campus.
“I fear that five years from now,
blacks will be extinct on our cam
pus,” Young said. “Don’t give up
on A&M. Bad-mouthing the
school to friends and family won’t
help increase our black enrollment
rates.”
Young encouraged freshmen to
get involved on campus and help
minority recruitment efforts by
sharing their experiences with high
school students.
