Texas A&M’s minority recruitment drive hits plateau

“Texas A&M University’s high-profile campaign to increase minority representation on campus has stalled after some gains, with the percentage of black and Hispanic students among the freshman class remaining unchanged for the third consecutive year.

Of the 8,078 freshmen enrolled this fall, 14 percent are Hispanic and 3 percent are black, despite a record number of applications and acceptances for the minority groups, according to A&M’s preliminary counts.”
