You're actually talking about athletes driving general student body admission standards at aTm?
Exactly how naive ARE you? Wanna buy a bridge?

Contrarian logic is fun ... until it isn't.
It's a bad look for aTm, regardless.

Someone from the Dallas Morning News likely called to confirm.

Tell all the Aggie jokes that you like, but TAMU academics are rigorous.
No need for us to pile on with the jokes.
You are doing a hell of a job on your own.

OPINION: That influence may have played a role re review of the Rittenhouse application (if any)
I see that the remedial course in Standard American English did not do you much good.

That’s why he shot those two people? Because he didn’t like them? You are a dishonest douche.

Tell us more about self defense and how the Aggies are against the concept.
But the legal doctrine of self-defense keeps one out of prison. It does not guarantee one admission to a top university.

"He has not been admitted as a student this summer or fall," Texas A&M spokesperson Kelly Brown said.
A&M is pretty hard to get into even if you live there. I wonder how good a student Kyle was given his other "interests".

This is a very specific statement. Weirdly specific.
ETA: Would be incredibly stupid for the school to publicly deny his application.

Of course, the threshold question is who “who is protected by FERFA?“
I suspect that one must actually be enrolled as a student in an educational institution in order to claim that his records kept at that institution are protected.
quote:LINK
To understand the scope of FERPA, it is necessary to define “student.” According to FERPA, a student is an individual who is enrolled in and actually attends an educational institution.

As Rittenhouse testified under oath he was a HS graduate, it's amazing that the mouth-breathing pigs prosecuting him wouldn't have strapped him up for perjury.
Gosh, that's odd.
