East Texas A&M is in that sweet spot – large enough to have well-known and recognized professors, organizations and curricula, but small enough for students to receive one-on-one time with faculty and staff.

A Conversation with Grace
What would you tell a student who is thinking about attending East Texas A&M?
East Texas A&M hits the sweet spot. It's large enough to boast well-known and recognized professors, organizations and curricula, yet it's small enough for students to have one-on-one time with faculty and staff.
What is your favorite spot in Commerce?
I love going to Mugs on the Square for some really good coffee and a cozy atmosphere.
What do you like to do when you’re not working?
I like to spend time with my cats and my husband, either watching anime and funny YouTube compilations or gaming on my PC.
