Tradition changed last year at
Texas A&M University, and now
women are allowed to help build the
annual Texas Aggie bonfire.
But some women prefer to let the
men do the “dirty” work, and so
female Aggies have found another
way to help with the tradition. They
serve refreshments to their male
counterparts.
The bonfire committee of the Stu
dent Y Association at Texas A&M is
one organization of women helping
with the bonfire. Their service to the
workers is furnishing them with
cookies.
Michelle Piatt, chairman of the
bonfire committe of Student Y, said
women have been providing refresh
ments for the workers for several

“No one knows exactly the date
(when women started providing re
freshments), but it was somewhere
in the mid ’60s when a lot of women
started coming here (to Texas
A&M).”
Last year, Piatt said the organiza
tion spent over $1,500 on conces
sions for the workers — money
which came mostly from the Student
Y activity fund.
So this year, for the first time, the
Student Y sent requests for home-
