It was my understanding that A&M had moved beyond its agrarian roots and, in some respects, I suppose that is true. However, being the first in my family to go to college, I was expecting to escape the redneck habits and lifestyle so pervasive in rural Texas. I was mistaken. A&M is inundated with outdated cowboy philiosophy and almost completely devoid of the intellectual challenges I expected to face. There are, of course, challenging courses and programs but on a day-to-day basis you can expect to be met with carbon copies of white urban cowboys with limited capacity for abstract thought. In short, it lives up to its stereotype.
