BEST and WORST about TAMU

<p>Anyone care to comment based on your experiences (current and past students)</p>

<p>Best: Parties, Women
Worst: Location, homogenous student body</p>

<p>Schism, I'm confused... have you ever been a student at TAMU?</p>

<p>Worst would probably be the fact that you occasionally meet people who have preconceptions about A&M that they won't let go.</p>

<p>Best is the Aggie Network. I have a friend who was in the Northeast at a gas station recently, and a man saw his Aggie ring. They started talking, and when he went back to his car, he saw that the man had paid for his gas! The cool thing is, this is in no way unusual. Two weeks ago I met the first president of Dell computers (and the guy who invented Livestrong bracelets lol) and he gave me his contact info and offered to help me with anything I needed because I was an Aggie. I know an Aggie who was able to start his own successful business because when no one else would help him because of competition, an Aggie showed him everything he needed to know. Aggies are there for one another. Period.</p>

<p>Worst: You'll be apart of something most people won't understand.
The campus is a bit old.
There's so much to do, but little time to do them.</p>

<p>Best:
You'll be apart of something most people won't understand.
Women are great.
Traditions bind you to every Aggie, past, present and future.
And most definitely the Aggie network.</p>

<p>I think:
Best: safe campus, quality academics, god networking after graduation
*Worst: * perception (whether true or not) of TAMU as low diversity, conservative and not very intellectual student body</p>

What is the disadvantage of homogeneous student body?</p>

<p>He is under the impression that there is no clash of ideas at A&M. He's becoming dangerously close to the definition of a troll.</p>

<p>I say close and not definitely because he does have some intellectual arguments to his madness, but the TAMU page could be hardly appropriate.</p>

<p>Best: honors programs and networking therein, camaraderie between students, strength of science and engineering programs, casual feel, focus on service
Worst: weather, traffic in College Station</p>

<p>I'm a sophomore at Texas A&M now.</p>
