Texas A&M: The Clone Wars
So, you’ve noticed there’s a slight overpopulation of Texas A&M schools, huh? You’re not alone. It’s like the Aggies decided to open a franchise and went a bit overboard. Let’s dive into this mystery.
The Aggie Empire Strikes Back
Texas A&M University, the OG, is a proud land-, sea-, and space-grant institution. They’ve got everything from engineering to veterinary medicine. But then, like a swarm of locusts, other A&M schools started popping up. There’s Texas A&M University-Commerce, Texas A&M University-San Antonio, Texas A&M University-Central Texas...the list goes on. It’s like Texas decided to cover every inch of the state with Aggie pride, whether anyone wanted it or not.
A&M: More Than Just A University
One theory is that Texas is just really, really big. So big, in fact, that they needed multiple A&M schools to cater to the diverse needs of the Lone Star State. It’s like building a Starbucks on every corner – convenience is key, right?
Another theory (and this one is a bit more out there) is that the Aggies are secretly planning to take over the world. By establishing a network of A&M schools, they’re creating a global army of highly educated, Aggie-minded individuals. It’s a diabolical plan, really.
