<p>They both have many stereotypes. Some would say A&M’s the crazy conservative, military esque, tradition entrenched school. UT has the stereotype of being a party school, not to mention extremely liberal. To some extent, both are true. The vast majority of A&M students are religiously and politically conservative, the Corps of Cadets does have a significant presence on campus, and most aggies live and die by their traditions. These are not neccesarily bad things, they just make the school unique, and can be construed as negative. Likewise, one who attends UT does not have to get drunk every night and/or join a frat/sorority, or be a liberal. Plenty of UT students are hard working, go getters in extremely hard programs such as Plan 2, Engineering Honors, and Business Honors, with no time to party. To be sure, the schools have different atmospheres, and many would contend that UT is the better of the two, but to all their own. It’s what YOU make of the school that truly counts.</p>
