Texas A&M University is a university in the University System of Texas. Located in College Station, Texas, it was established in 1871 as a military school. Texas A&M began life as an agricultural, vocational school, but has become a respected university. A&M has many rich traditions, and also is one of very few moderate, or possibly even conservative, institutions of higher learning, owing to a large-scale educational bias against conservatives. The Princeton Review ranked it as the most conservative school in the nation in 2009. Texas A&M produces more US officers than any other university, aside from the military academies.

Athletics

The school's athletic programs are associated with the NCAA's Big 12 Conference, and its mascot is the Aggie.
