rams80 Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 This thread is an interesting example of the dichotomy between the Texas and A&M alumni bases. Both are seeing the academic standards of their institutions being slowly degraded by the political hacks appointed by Governor Perry. The difference is Texas is actually seeing pushback against that academic erosion by the alumni while A&M is having a ing civil war over whether or not there's a bevel in the goddamn logo.

Old Main Posted May 20, 2013 Author Share Posted May 20, 2013 Captain Tsubasa,You made some good points. I included a brief executive summary in my cover letter and in my email. It would have been redundant to repeat the summary in my letter.Smith03,Bevel Huggers and Bevel Slayers ?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_Texas_A%26M_University_termsEverything and everyone at Texas A&M has a nickname. It probably has a lot to do with our history as a small, all-male military institute. TexAgs takes the lexicon to a new level.Examples of Texas A&M Vocabulary:- Fish = Freshman- Pisshead = Sophomore- Serge Butt = Junior- Zip = Senior- t-sip = Texas Longhorn- 2 Percenters = Aggies not following A&M traditionsExamples of TexAgs Vocabulary:- stocking = stalking- moran = moron- tceh = Texas Tech- 2/10/sharp knees/WNB = Any hottie pic because every guy on TexAgs is dating or married to a super model- skinny ankles/subway/hair = if you see someone well known in Bryan-College Station you must report on how their ankles looked, whether or not they were eating Subway, and how their hair looked- Germans bombed the moon = this is old news Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitedawg22 Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 I could go either way on Texas A&M's beveled logo.But if you're making an argument based on the purity of a college sports logo, you should know that the "split M" logo you use in your example is no longer an official logo of the University of Michigan, and hasn't been for several years. Now the only official "M" logo is the solid-colored one, without the bar in the center that says "MICHIGAN": oh ,my god ,i strong recommend you to have a visit on the website ,or if i'm the president ,i would have an barceque with the anthor of the articel .

ColeJ Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 i'm not even a longhorns fan, but growing up in texas, it's hard to not hate aggies.you either are one, or you hate them.also, baseless broad statement: everyone with an aTm logo on their vehicle in any form is a terrible drive, who has never heard of a turn signal.
