  • Sea Aggies Honor Long-Standing Traditions with a Little Help from a Friend
    Sea Aggies honor long-standing traditions with a little help from a friend. Reveille, the official mascot of Texas A&M University and the highest ranking member of the Corps of Cadets recently visited the TAMUG campus to honor long-standing Aggie traditions. Presiding over TAMUG Midnight Yell Practice and Aggie Ring Day, Reveille engendered a spirit of Aggieland that binds all Aggies to each other through the generations. Yell Practice The tradition of Yell Practice began as a post dinner activity in 1913, when different corps companies would gather together to "learn heartily the old time pep." However, it was not until 1931, that Yell Practice as it is known today was held before the games opposing University of Texas also known as “t.u.” The main purpose of Midnight Yell is to pump up the Twelfth Man for the next day's big game. Twelfth Man tradition The tradition of the Twelfth Man was born on the second of January 1922, when an underdog Aggie team was playing Centre College, then the nation's top ranked team. As the hard fought game wore on, and the Aggies dug deeply into their limited reserves, Coach Dana X. Bible remembered a squad man who was not in uniform. He had been up in the press box helping reporters identify players. His name was E. King Gill, and was a former football player who was only playing basketball. Gill was called from the stands, suited up, and stood ready throughout the rest of the game, which A&M finally won 22-14.

  • Aggie Terminology
    Aggie Terminology Add/Drop: The process during registration whereby courses are added and dropped; only lasts for the first few days of class Aggie Honor Code: All students are expected to adhere to the code that “An Aggie does not lie, cheat or steal, or tolerate those who do.” Aggie Spirit: Indefinable until you experience it, but essentially it is the overwhelming feeling of pride and unity that Aggies (current, former, and future) feel for each other and for their university. Aggieland: (1) Home of the Fightin’ Texas Aggies; (2) Texas A&M’s yearbook All-U Night: All-University Night - the first Yell Practice of the semester; this event includes introductions of men’s and women’s intercollegiate athletic teams, coaching staff, and yell leaders. Usually held on the evening of the first day of classes. Association of Former Students: The alumni association - there is no such thing as an ex-Aggie; there are only Former Students. You don’t even have to graduate to join the Association. Once an Aggie always an Aggie. Bad Bull: Anything that does not promote the Aggie Spirit. The Batt: The Battalion, Texas A&M’s student newspaper. The Big Event: The largest one-day student-run service project in the nation. The Big Event takes place on a Saturday morning in the spring semester. Thousands of students go out into the Bryan/College Station community to perform various service projects to say “thank you” for all of their support. Dead Elephant: Any senior student during the spring semester. They are “dead” once they have participated in Elephant Walk.

  • 1108 History of Reveille.Pdf
    ‘Traditions are not born on the form of sudden revelation but rather as a gradually accelerating, expanding philosophical acceptance by all. And this tradition started in the most minute origin, and became nationwide, and it is a joy to me that it has happened.’ –George Comnas ’35 The First Lady of Aggieland By Krista Smith ’09 t was Aug. 30, the first home game for the Aggies. The eyes of the more than 80,000 in Iattendance turned to the end zone. Sitting there was a panting dog, bedecked in maroon and white finery. “Look! It’s her!” “There she is! The new one! Isn’t she gorgeous?” And when her image flashed on the giant video screen a few seconds later, an all-out roar of ap- plause and whoops erupted. After Reveille VII’s retirement was announced in February, it took a lengthy process to find the new mascot. But Reveille VIII was finally home. She has been formally installed as First Lady of Aggieland and continues a fabled legacy rich with tradition.

  • University History Tradition
    UNIVERSITY HISTORY & TRADITION UNIVERSITY HISTORY & TRADITION As a first generation Aggie, the idea of an incredibly large student body population raised on rich history and traditions seemed both inspiring and overwhelming. However, from my first step onto Texas A&M University’s campus, I knew that I had found my home. The Aggie Spirit is amazing in bringing thousands of individuals together into one Aggie Family. Our abundant history and long-standing traditions make Texas A&M unique from any other institution. From traditions such as Silver Taps and Aggie Muster, to the 12th Man, Reveille, and the Aggie Ring, Texas A&M generates a sense of pride and loyalty to the university that is unparalleled. My advice is to become fully immersed in the culture and traditions of Texas A&M. Being a part of the Aggie Family means contributing to something greater than yourself, so make the most of your time here...and Gig ‘Em Aggies! Shelley Gullord ’18 New Student Handbook | 9 History By resolution of the Legislature of the State of Texas in November 1866, Texas agreed to provide for a college under the terms of the Morrill Act, but no such institution was organized until the establishment of the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas by the Texas state legislature on April 17, 1871. A commission created to locate the institution accepted the offer of 2,416 acres of land from the citizens of Brazos County in 1871, and instruction began in 1876. Texas A&M was established as a military institution, and the Corps of Cadets has played an important part in its history and development.

(May 2008) Emily Lynn Caulfield, B.A., Texas A&M University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Eric Rothenbuhler This study explores how the unique history, culture, and traditions of Texas A&M University shape students’ perceptions and understandings of diversity and diversity programs. I examine these issues through participant observation of Texas A&M’s football traditions and in-depth, semi-structured interviews with members of the student body. In response to increased media scrutiny, public pressure, and scholastic competition, the current administration has embraced a number of aggressive initiatives to increase diversity among members of the student body. The collision between decades of tradition and the administration’s vision for the future has given rise to tension between members of the student body and the administration, which I argue is due, at least in part, to the culture that began developing at Texas A&M during the middle of the twentieth century as students began reacting to the prospect of change.
