Once again, as many of the ones written before, this article is written by a lifelong Aggies, who graduated from the school. The once-Conservative Texas A&M has sloped so far to the left in recent years, it has become unrecognizable. They continue pushing new DEI hires, pushing DEI classes despite state law prohibiting them from doing so, and seem to have no sense in reading the room of alumni, who are pleading that the school stop the nonsense.
There is a joke saying at the tradition-steeped Texas A&M. If it happens more than once, it is a tradition. Well, Texas A&M is once again going full left-wing, in what has become the newest school tradition. They are now offering a Leftist ‘Gender & Society’ course to students. The goal is to focus on ‘the sociological analysis of gender in relation to social structure.’ Basically, it is a class designed to teach the left-wing perspective on gender.
Conservative activist Christian Collins says this has become yet another stamp of shame for the school.
“For all the parents that are going to spend their money…they should think twice,” he says. “Because if you want your kid to become a Marxist…then send them to Texas A&M.”
That is exactly the road the school has been going down for about a decade now. The Left ideology has gone all the way to the core now too, with many in the administration being staunch Democrats. They, in turn, then hire more DEI professors, and more ‘activist’ professors to push the liberal agenda.
Parents do indeed face a tough question on where to spend their money for their kids, in all facets of life. But choosing college now has become questionable, to the point of considering other options, like trade schools.
“How are you bettering our state, communities, and country, with this kind of ideology?” he says “That is what parents will have to answer.”
In short, this kind of course does nothing to improve any part of anyone’s life. College kids will graduate not knowing what a credit score is, or how to file taxes. But they will know how transgenders feel somehow inequal to everyone else. Super useful.
But this is not some coincidence, or random act that A&M has done. This is more work of Democrats trying to infiltrate the next generation. The next group that will be our politicians, board members, and leaders. Because if you get them young, you can get them forever.
“Democrats have done an excellent job infiltrating our nations universities to push their ideology…this is the time to reach them…this is what could change our country for a generation,” he says.
Aggie Values are a major part of the school roots too. They are excellence, integrity, leadership, loyalty, respect, and selfless service. Texas Scorecard reached out to the school for a comment on how this course related to those values. They did not receive a response. Just very loud silence.
Collins says the only way to battle the issue is for parents to ‘vote with their dollars,’ and reconsider their kids college choices.
