Aggie traditions are a tremendous strength for the University. But diversity is a growing tradition at A&M. Diversity is supported at every level of the University and I don't know of any student or faculty member who does not support and benefit from diversity at Texas A&M. This is a totally false and fabricated assertion for anyone to make. Aggies are in lockstep agreement that diversity is important and meaningful in the educational experience. Some might argue that diversity is just "politically correct" nonsense. But those people miss the point. Without understanding other cultures and value systems, you are ignorant. But I don't know of anyone who holds such a view. This is creating a straw man. To those who argue that we need some radical liberal philosophy of elevating minorities above others - that is nonsense. But again, I don't know of a real person who holds such a view. Let's stop creating arguments out of thin air and concentrate on things that matter.
