19. Please comment on your overall educational experiences at Texas A&M and the Department of Agricultural Economics
Until next time Texas A&M,
Best department by far. Dr. Harness is a brilliant man and has helped tremendously will various job opportunities and opening doors as well as expanding my knowledge of the Financial Planning world beyond what I anticipated. Professor Menzies was probably my favorite teacher and the best teacher I have had at any level of education thus far. He not only found a way to make learning such pertinent information fun and exciting but did it in a way that effectively taught it to us. He has a true gift for teaching and that is one class I was always dying to.

I really enjoyed getting to complete my undergraduate education at one of the very best universities in the world. I owe the Department of Agricultural Economics a big thank you for the last few years and everything I have learned.
My overall educational experiences at Texas A&M were great and I am so glad I chose the Department of Agricultural Economics. I believe that the AGEC Department has the most caring professors in the whole University. The AGEC Department has the courses we take structured perfectly and I enjoyed all of them.
My time at Texas A&M as been one of pure joy. I have met some of the greatest people I probably will ever meet. The culture of Aggie land is something that will never be forgotten in my mind. The AGEC department is very special and is led by a team of amazing professors and directors. I cannot thank the department enough for guiding me through this journey. It has been an unbelievable blessing to be educated and counseled through my college experience
I thoroughly enjoyed my time as an AGEC major. I learned a lot, the professors were great, and I really liked how all my classes had the same people each semester for the most part. Advisors were helpful and there were plenty of resources. I also felt that the Financial Planning minor got me pretty well prepared for my new career.

I will never forget Rister's class, that class taught me more in one semester than the three years before that.
