Maroon Table Talk #1
On November 11, 2021, SGA’s Diversity Commission hosted its first annual Maroon Table Talk of the year with Dr. Mary Campbell.
The goal of “Maroon Table Talk: Current Campus Climate” is to engage in a dynamic conversation about Texas A&M’s environment, racism on campus, and racial injustices occurring throughout our world today. We want to allow the student body to voice their concerns and opinions, and know that they are heard. We hope that students, staff, and faculty from varying perspectives participate in this very much needed conversation.
*This event has finished prior to this post, a huge thanks to Dr. Mary Campbell for leading our Maroon Table Talk.*

Texas A&M University is becoming an increasingly more diverse institution as individuals from around the country and across the globe become more and more inspired by what this university has to offer. As the Student Government Association represents a multi-faceted student body, it is the priority of SGA and the Diversity Commission to embrace different backgrounds, lifestyles, and cultures in order to enhance the Aggie student experience. Moreover, it is our duty as an SGA organization to understand how issues and opportunities on campus affect all students. However, it is important to recognize that no matter how different we are in our beliefs, customs or lifestyles, we will always have one thing in common: We Are Aggies.
“I can imagine nothing more terrifying than an Eternity filled with men who were all the same. The only thing which has made life bearable…has been the diversity of creatures on the surface of the globe.” – T.H. White
“We are not supposed to all be the same, feel the same, think the same, and believe the same. The key to continued expansion of our Universe lies in diversity, not in conformity and coercion. Conventionality is the death of creation.” – Anthen St. Maarten
