(May 2012) Dana Nicole Sayre, B.A.; B.A, Fairmont State University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Judith Hamera Through a combination of personal interviews and participant-observation in three field sites – the Tim Miller workshop and performance of October 2010 and the student organizations Cepheid Variable and the GLBT Aggies – I argue that manifestations of utopian desire and performance circulate within and among marginalized groups on the Texas A&M University campus, undermining the heteronormative and monolithic utopia the university attempts to present. I participated in each night of rehearsal during the Tim Miller workshop, as well as the creation and performance of my own solo autobiographical monologue as a part of the ensemble. My participant-observation in Cepheid Variable and the GLBT Aggies was concurrent, consisting of attendance at both weekly organizational meetings and outside events sponsored by the organizations over two years.

  • 1 | Page As Texas A&M University Commemorates 50 Years Of
    As Texas A&M University commemorates 50 years of inclusion, we look back on the history and the remarkable contributions of A&M’s increasingly diverse campus community. This timeline, while not exhaustive, includes notable moments, individuals, and milestones in all areas of campus life ranging from athletics to the creation of university centers and even controversial events that have occurred since Texas A&M was established. This timeline represents an effort on the part of the university to portray the experiences and contributions of women, racial and ethnic minorities, GLBT individuals, international individuals, and people with disabilities who have been part of A&M. 1866 12th Texas Legislature accepts terms of Morrill Land-Grant Colleges Act which establishes the A&M College of Texas. Matthew Gaines along with other Black legislators supports the passage of the Act. 1876 New Texas Constitution enacted segregation in public facilities. Texas Legislature established state A&M college for "colored youths." A&M College formally opened, initiating public higher education in Texas. 1 | P a g e Texas A&M officially opened its doors for registration. Forty students and six faculty members show up to begin instruction. 2 | P a g e 1878 Prairie View A&M University established and placed under A&M Board of Directors. 1889 First known international student, Helge Ness from Norway, graduates from Texas A&M and then teaches on campus. Ness is the first in America to produce hybrid oaks. Several of his trees can still be found on campus. 1890 United States Congress passes the Second Morril Act, which specified that states that maintained separate colleges for different races had to propose a just and equitable division of funds to be received under the act.

  • State of Diversity Report 2010
    State of Diversity Report The time has passed when the isolation of the Texas A&M University campus served a compelling utilitarian function. Information, communication, and technology have produced a highly connected global society. The ability to survive, much less succeed, is increasingly linked to the development of a more pluralistic, diverse, and globally aware populace. It is essential that the faculty, students, and larger campus community embrace this more cosmopolitan environment. The university’s traditional core values will give us guidance and distinctiveness, while preparing us to interact with all people of the globe. Texas A&M University must attract and nurture a more ethnically, culturally, and geographically diverse faculty, staff, and student body. –Imperative 6, Vision 2020: Creating a Culture of Excellence, Texas A&M University. Vision Texas A&M University will be known for its leadership in diversity, as evidenced by an environment where everyone, regardless of their identity, is welcomed and encouraged to succeed. Mission The Mission of the Office of the Vice President and Associate Provost for Diversity is to facilitate, coordinate, advance, amplify, inform, and monitor the University and its many units as we develop our strength in–and evidence of– respect for diversity. 1 Introduction As we reflect on these statements, bold as they are, we should remind ourselves that this is a vision for Texas A&M University, not a plan. While there is no doubt that we have made and are continuing to make strides in our efforts to diversify and globalize the faculty, staff, students, and administrative ranks, there is still work to be done to fully realize this vision.
