No you don't know. I was in education for over 30 years and had to submit many of these reports.

There is NO school of choice in public schools in Bryan and College Station. Everyone goes where they are zoned, except for the 3 private schools which have about 100-200 students each.

Geez.
Who cares?
Lock/anchor this thread, already (you're not fooling me, Aggie Dynasty).
To the person who asked why this board is "slow:" juvenile racial & gay quips are a huge part of it.

Even so, that's the demographics for kids 5-18. That's not even close to representative to the actual population.

I don't doubt those numbers at all, but don't play dumb. You know not all populations have children at the same rate. Children per household alone would skew those numbers beyond use for the total population.

yep, Midnight Yell Practice, where 50,000 Aggies get together at midnight the day of the game.

I envision anal bead party favors.

150 years ago today, the Texas Aggies tried to start a border war with the Louisiana Tigers... 35 Aggies went to the Sabine River and threw sticks of dynamite across the river.... the LSU people picked them up, lit them, and threw them back!!!


One time, the Aggies got a federal grant for septic tanks.

They were going to invade Austin with them, but couldn't figure out how to drive them.

How could Auburn have started the Tiger Walk when in 1969 ya'll were calling yourselves Plainsmen? I'm 64 and that '69 game was a home game for LSU and I sat above your fans and cheerleaders and ya'll were definitely calling yourselves the Plainsmen. It wasn't until the 80's that ya'll called yourselves tigers. If you read the book called the history of the SEC and its member schools, Auburns first mascot was the war eagle. I wonder what Auburns next mascot will be.

What would Auburn do if a home team said they weren't allowed to do the Tiger Walk on their campus?


Walking around the stadium before Auburn at MSU last year, I saw that the South end was blocked off for the Dawg walk. No problem, we'll just walk around the other end....


I didn't know that Auburn had a Tiger Walk at away games, but I got to see it up close.

Laughable that you think Bloomberg isn't a legitimate source.

With that statistic, yeah. It's so far out of whack with reality only a blinkered fool would take it at face value.
