I answered that given the chance, I would go to a different University. I say this not because I have anything against Texas A&M, but because I am the type of student who craves one on one attention from my professors. I need to have close and personal relationships with the people who are preparing me for the rest of my life. I can not stand being so detached from my professors. It causes me to become detached from my school work, and the downward spiral of action-reaction begins and could possibly be fateful.

On another hand, the people at Texas A&M are the nicest group/population of human beings that I have ever been around in my life. I am from a huge city where being rude is the norm. College Station has it's own unique culture. If I had to use one word to describe Texas A&M/CSTX culture it would be CONSIDERATE. People are just kind in a shocking way. This leads me to my last point. Religion engulfs this town and the people living within. I think religion has shaped the "we are all family, we are the spirit", the spirit of Aggieland! Now if you want to fall in love with a University I suggest that you attend Texas A&M. Thinking about it can give me goose bumps, or even bring me to tears. There is something about this university that you will not find anywhere else in the entire world. I guarantee it.

Question
Narrow-minded phony Christian groups dominate most orginazatSuper BrilliantEnglish
Narrow-minded phony Christian groups dominate most orginazations. Let me preface this by saying I am devout Christian, and I intend to continue on in 2012 in Seminary at Southwestern. But my harshest complaint aginst the University is the quiality of student I found. I came here loving the Aggie spirt, getting hyped up on football, though our team is religiously awful, and I got very involved in a Bible study and with my major. I loved my freshman year. But starting sophomore year, I began to see the fissures in the 'Spirit of Aggieland.' Most students come from High Schools under 200 students- mine had 900, and even I was a green freshman. Generally, there is way too much country, mindless conservative propoganda, fake Christians, terrible football, and hordes of ugly sorority girls and their drunken frat boys. My Bibl study leader, and mnay others turned out to be of the same type- fake, hurtful, and hypocritical. I got tired of losing games and standing for four hours in the 100+ degree weather. Academics, unless engineering, are pitful, and there is nothing to do here unless you love drinking at a small bar strip every night.
