Time for Col. Lobotomy to throw more aggies under the bus.

PRESIDENT February 10, 2016 MEMORANDUM TO: The Texas A&M University Community


I am outraged and tremendously disappointed in the behavior displayed by a group of students on our College Station campus yesterday one in which a group of ethnic minority high school students from the Dallas area reported that racial slurs were directed toward them during their campus tour.


I deeply regret the pain and hurt feelings this incident caused these young students. Be assured that we take such allegations very seriously. Our police department responded to the scene following the reported incident and we are currently fully assessing it. In addition, we had administrators and students from campus who met with our visiting guests to assure them that they are welcome and respected by the vast majority of Aggies. This troubling incident will be thoroughly investigated to the fullest extent possible and appropriate action will be taken.


While the actions of a few certainly do not represent our institution as a whole, it is the responsibility of all of us to stop any incidents that could be considered hateful or biased-based on race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability or any other factor. This type of behavior goes against our A&M core values and in addition to immediate intervention, Texas A&M has the website https://stophate.tamu.edu/ available for the reporting of any non-emergency hateful or biased-based incidents.

Today I met with our student-led inclusion council seeking input into ways that Texas A&M can improve in making all people feel welcome and safe on our campus. Some positive and constructive suggestions came from that discussion and I have charged my respective Vice Presidents to engage with student, faculty and community leaders where appropriate. I also understand that a deeper discussion about freedom of speech and inclusion needs to take place. I look forward to sharing more thoughts on these subjects in the near future but in the meantime I ask all of you to reflect on your role in making Texas A&M a place where all are made to feel welcome and included.

Michael K. Young

Texas has no room to talk. Your school is full of entitled "Greek" bastards. Do you remember students right by the drag getting hit by bleach bombs, and had racial slurs yelled at them? You had the Jefferson Davis statue up for how many years? I could list so many things...... Also I don't know if this handle is Randolph Duke but if so eat a dick you aggie obsessed piece of shite. Do more research on more aggie traditions ala " the 12th man" to waste your pitiful life on.



Yes I'm mad. Peace

Unlike the school in Austin, Texas A&M does not have any buildings named after Klan Leaders and Aggies are not the ones throwing bleach bombs at minorities.

Who cares? Can't govern racism. People are going to not like people because of color, because of religious beliefs, or any other reason. You can't implement organizations and rules to stop the hate. It only fuels more hate and distance between groups. It's nauseating how many race related stories pop up everyday. It's not illegal to hate someone or a group of people.

Silly aggies. Dumb as stumps. (And racists, too)

quote:

So-called “bleach bomb” attacks on the UT campus may not have happened as thought.

Last week, a UT student was hit by a balloon while walking down near a private dorm near West 24th Street –similar to an attack last fall. The incidents sparked protests against racism and conversations over whether UT is a hostile environment for minority students.


But UT officials say that according to preliminary findings, interviews and lab results, there is no evidence that bleach was used, or the attacks were racially motivated in either incident.

Poor aggies are melting
