I am not going to say that what your friend says is entierly incorrect. Yes, TAMU is not as diverse as other schools, and I can see how it could be an intimidating setting, but not once while I have been here have a seen an unwelcoming gesture to ANYONE!.

A lot of things influence peoples opinions of TAMU, but if you friends have not attended to/visited this university then I would seek some better opinions. If they have, then I am sorry that they had a bad experience. Like I said, I think this place could definitely come off as an intimidating atmosphere for some.

And as far as political preferences, professors I have had tend to be more liberal than anything. People far from closed minded because honestly you can’t be closed minded and make contributions to any field. I honestly don’t think that political affiliation should even be considered, but some people definitely get turned on and off by it.
