The Usenet News service is funded and operated by Computing and Information Services. Our goal is to enable students, faculty, and staff at Texas A&M to participate in and benefit from the information exchange on the Internet, enhancing both academic studies and professional development.
The TAMU newsgroups exist to facilitate discussion of topics related to Texas A&M. There are many other news hierarchies and groups that offer forums for general discussion. These newsgroups focus on the needs of the students, faculty, and staff at Texas A&M.
