I know that some students are disappointed with the Flashmob, because of the event being disrespectful, and I can see where they are coming from, but it is important to fully look into the situation. The MSC has two extremely sacred areas, the Hall of Honor and the "Living Memorial" (aka the grass). Whereas the room that the Flashmob took place in the Flag Room, a room that is decorated with the flags of every corps outfit, signifying it as a place for Aggies to come together and unite as one. For this reason I can think of no better location across our great campus that would is more fitting.

To have so many students from all walks of life doing a single event at one time that was wrapped up by our fight song, The War Hymn, is in my mind sweet perfection. I am proud of what happened and I commend the students who put it on, they have made great strides for our University and its outlook on the embracing of the differences of others by creating a fun event that brought us all together on a random Thursday afternoon at 12:15 p.m. Thank you.
