Texas A&M student involved in racial incident no longer associated with school

texasa&mCOLLEGE STATION- Texas A&M says a student involved in the racial harassment of campus visitors last month is no longer associated with the school.

The school says on February 9th, several white A&M students were seen taunting and harassing a group of prospective students and their counselors from Uplift Hampton Preparatory school near Dallas.

The incident happened on the south side of Walton Hall and campus police were called to investigate.

On Wednesday, Texas A&M President Michael K. Young released a statement to say the investigation regarding the incident is complete.

“One of the many students interviewed is no longer associated with Texas A&M University. The case has concluded. However, if additional information comes to our attention we will further investigate and take any appropriate action,” said President Young.

The Texas A&M Police Department investigation into what happened is also complete and was turned over to the Brazos County attorney’s office for review.

“We have been informed that the county attorney has declined to pursue any action related to the case,” said President Young.
