In spite of not being a private school, aTm still gets an honorable mention among the Colleges for the Socially Conservative. Jefferson Davis was offered the presidency of what was then known known as the Agriculture and Mechanical College of Texas.

Although I'm not an Aggie (Harding is my school), I admire aTm for many things including its military tradition and its alumni such as Texas Congressman Louie Gohmert. My perception is that liberals hate A&M...another reason to like it!

Aggies are not a Ptivate School. They actualy get millions of tax dollars. They just got beat by Alabama and their quaterback is a snotty crap head that will not make it through the season healthy. Aggies dress up like army folk but its all a sham. They are totally phoney.

1. TAMU is a university, not a minor league sports team.

2. TAMU is a huge school, 50,000+ students, on the scale of The Ohio State University.

3. The Corps of Cadets is a small part of TAMU.

4. There are a huge number of TAMU alumni, and they are big supporters of their university.

That is a hell of a lot of money. Oklahoma should have went to the SEC when it had the chance. The Big 10/12ths is declining rapidly.
