What is Texas A&M University?
A small group of people who are ignorant enough to get hazed every day and follow mind-numbingly pointless rules such as not walking on grass, unless a senior; having to run to the end of halls out of their way to greet upperclassmen; and basically subjecting themselves to whats been called by a former major general from West Point, "more cruel and unorthodox practices than what is accepted at the Military Academy, or in any Armed Service Branch"
"The Texas A&M University Corps of Cadets... a place where freshman thru juniors put up with crap just to have 'privileges' I've had since I first got here, and the right to wear ugly boots that cost over $1000"
