The Texas Aggie, official mag
azine of the association, is dis
tributed 10 times each year to
contributors to the association’s
Annual Fund. Seniors are urged
to pick up the magazine at the
association office in the lower
west end of the Memorial Stu
dent Center.
Current news and information
about A&M and about the pro
grams of the association is car
ried in Th e Texas Aggie along
with news items and addresses
of former students.
Annually The Texas Aggie car
ries a list of Aggie Musters be
ing conducted throughout the
world on April 21 to inform
former students of Musters in
their area.
In addition, the association
provides each Muster chairman
with a packet of information and
suggested programs to make the
ceremony more meaningful.
Speakers traveled from the cam
pus this year to speak at Mus
ters as far away as Maracaibo,
Venezuela.
A major service provided by
the association is the printing
and mailing of class and club in
formation materials. All class
agent letters are distributed
from the association’s office.
Induction banquets are spon
sored by the association each year
to introduce graduating seniors
to the programs and services of
fered by the association. This
year’s banquets were held April
24 and 25 with a record number
of seniors in attendance.
Each graduating senior is pro
vided with a permanent associa
tion membership card which is a
bill-fold sized, laminated replica
of his or her diploma.
Former students may call on
the resources of the association
at any time and members of the
association staff stand ready to
provide assistance.
This is only a brief look at the
services provided alumni by the
Association of Former Students.
Probably the most important
thing the association gives the
former students is the opportun
ity to serve A&M in ways that
will enhance every A&M degree.

of Texas and indicated that similar appointments of students and faculty
members would be made in the future.

those between the ages of 18 and 21.

cratic Executive Committee.

ernor's staff than any other Governor in Texas history.
