Performer Jessy B. Darling reacts after being crowned 2022 Queen of Draggieland, by former queen Cora Cadette at Rudder Theatre at Texas A&M University on Monday, April 18, 2022. A&M pulled funding from an annual drag show on campus, so several LGBT groups banded together over several months to plan and find funding for the event. This is one of several unilateral decisions A&M administrators made this academic year, much to the chagrin of impacted student groups.
The alumni population is similarly large. More than 550,000 people have attended Texas A&M University, and more than 505,000 of them are still alive. That’s because more people graduated from the school in the past 20 years than in the first 120 years of the institution combined, according to the Association of Former Students.
The university is also working to align the management practices of student organizations, although it received “markedly split” feedback on the suggestion."We are pleased to hear from different voices, even though sometimes we all don’t agree on the outcome of a decision," Kelly Brown, vice president of marketing and communications, said in a statement."Texas A&M has 72,000-plus students, more than 1,200 student organizations and countless competing priorities.
