I should tell yall a little something about Texas A&M University. It is a world class university (and i am not just saying that cause i got my master's there :0)) BUT particularly in the fields of agriculture and animal science they are the upper crust in the nation. in fact i have heard that getting into their vetinary program is harder than getting into some very prestigeous universities medical programs. anyways texas a&m is a great, major university with a student body of around 40 thousand. the texas a&m motto is Aggies do not lie, cheat or steal nor tolerate those that do. its a different kind of place, and i mean that in the best way possible, if texas a&m is involved in a high capcity it makes all the difference to me. good luck
