Calling it the gravest threat to the university in 50 years, distinguished Texas A&M graduate Jon Hagler — for whom the Texas A&M Foundation’s offices are named — describes how one of the state’s great assets is being destroyed. Key quote:
“…this crisis is about whether the faculty, staff, students, former students and the broad and diverse community that make up Texas A&M University will allow a handful of politically motivated persons who do not understand their fiduciary duty either to the institution or to the citizens of the state to take over this wonderful, heavy-duty public university — this sacred public trust.”
