A&M in danger of never achieving its vast potential

Today's governance crisis at Texas A&M is extremely serious. It may be the most important crisis the university has faced since A&M President Earl Rudder's challenge to the status quo 50 years ago.

I don't pretend to understand this, but it doesn't sound good.

[cchwnn]

what the heck do you know..

[Hellcat]

Not much, but probably More than you.

[TexArk]

Sounds like inbreeding to me.

[cchwnn]

well just for the freaking record.. come on campus and take a look at what is going on.
things are going up and cant be no worries.. and to know more than someone, gee, i am honored..

[cchwnn]

hellcat after reading the issue on hand ,, dang it, i will agree with you on this one. i too have had my run in with the top dogs at the system level. at one time believe it or not my job was on the line and my future with the system was on his hands.. now why would the main big dog of a large system worry about a little guy like me at a clerk level.. dang.. good job

[Old News]

Sounds like what Molly Beth is doing to Texarkana College..........

well i dont know about all the internal politics, but A&M Texarkana looks to be improving with all the new degrees available

[Hellcat]

The new campus here is flippin' amazing. Are they holding any classes there yet?

[UTCC]

They need to build The University of Texas in Corpus Christi.

yeah, thanks utcc for that bit of irrelevant and off topic info. longhorns suck.

This article is about the A&M system in general, not specifically TAMUT. The politicians have taken over the A&M hierarchy and are quickly messin it up. Worst Case Scenario: A&M texarkana gets the A&M taken away from its name or A&M loses the positive connotation associated with it.

It's my understanding that Governor Perry is actively involved in the administration of the Texas A&M University System these days.

He really should stick with his day job.
