List of Texas Aggie terms

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This list of Texas Aggie terms includes words and phrases which are unique to, or hold a special meaning connected with, Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas. The University, often called A&M or TAMU, is a coeducational public research university and is the flagship institution of the Texas A&M University System. It opened in 1876 as the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas, the first public institution of higher education in that state.[1] In 1963, the Texas Legislature renamed the school to Texas A&M University to reflect the institution's expanded roles and academic offerings. The letters "A&M" no longer have any explicit meaning but are retained as a link to the university's past.[2]

As a senior military college, Texas A&M is one of three public universities with a full-time, volunteer Corps of Cadets. It provides more commissioned officers to the United States Armed Forces than any other school outside of the service academies. This is disputed, however, as Virginia Military Institute (VMI) makes the same claim.[3]

The majority of these terms come from the university's history as a military institution. Other sources of this terminology are the traditions of Texas A&M University, especially the Aggie Bonfire and the athletics program. Some terms on this list describe locations around the campus. While most unique terms about Texas A&M are used by Aggies, a few listed terms are used by the university's rivals.

Former Student
Aggie graduates refer to themselves as "former students" rather than alumni because not all Aggies graduated due to military needs during the World Wars.[6][23] Another reason why Aggie use the term former students to describe graduates because it is also felt that the term "alumni" would imply that Texas A&M graduates are "ex-Aggies". Aggies believe in the concept, "once an Aggie, always an Aggie" and thus the term "alumni" would not be appropriate.[7] The Association of Former Students is the university's equivalent of an alumni association.[24]
