O z: o QO O Seniors, juniors support! Senior yell leaders Chris Cordts junior computer science Howdy! My name is Chris Cordts, and I am a computer sci ence major from Hurst, Tx. Af ter spending three years at this University, I have come to un derstand what traditions mean and how yell leaders contribute to the preservation of those tra ditions. By harnessing the enor mous power of the Fighting Twelfth Man, yell leaders help make Texas A&M known for its spirit, pride, motivation and in tegrity. These are qualities that a yell leader must posses in order to demonstrate to those outside the university why A&M is a world class University and why its peo ple are so special. That is why I would like to be a contributor to this spirit and pride. By being elected senior yell leader, I can help uphold the traditions and keep the moti vation, things that have made A&M a truly great university. Tim Koch junior industrial distribution I am running for senior yell leader because I believe in Texas A&M and what it stands for. The Corps at Aggieland has done an excellent job through out A&M’s history in preserving Aggie traditions and spirit. Since the Corps today represents only five percent of the total student body, I feel the non-regs also need to be represented. I have participated in the Wal ton Hall dorm council, and I am currently serving as Walton Hall social chairman. I feel that some of my best qualities are my lead ership abilities, and my ability to motivate others. A&M is a very unified cam pus, and one of the goals I have is to bring the student body closer together. I want to pro vide leadership to the students and set an example to those not associated with A&M. Aggie tra ditions are very important to me. Upholding these traditions as a senior yell leader would not only be an honor but a privilege. I will carry the spirit of Aggieland in all my endeavours if elected. David Lawhorne junior business analysis To make yell leader would be a dream come true. It has been my goal to give back to Texas A&M twice what I have received. 1 strongly believe in A&M, its traditions and the Fightin’ Texas Aggie Twelfth Man. It is up to the yell leaders to promote and represent the Twelfth Man. My involvement in various student activities has enabled me to work with many of these students all over cam pus. I am a member of MSC Town Hall, a Muster committee member and a sub-chairman for Fish Camp ’85. I have a strong commitment to our school and feel it is my duty, if elected, to be motivated and share the excite ment and opportunities I have had at A&M. It is my goal to en courage all Aggies to be a posi tive and enthusiastic part of the Aggie spirit. Todd Watson junior landscape architecture Ever since I can remember I have wanted to be an Aggie, and ever since then, I have wanted to be a yell leader. Being a yell leader is the greatest honor that can be bestowed upon any Ag gie. I have been in the Singing Cadets for a year and a half, and I enjoy representing Texas A&M. I have a great respect for the traditions at A&M. II elected, I will represent this Uni versity with Aggie spirit and strive to uphold traditions that yell leaders have established through the years. Thomas Buford senior agricultural economics Howdy, my name is Thomas Buford, and I am seeking re- election for senior yell leader. I am from Mt. Pleasant, Tx. I think the most important thing for a yell leader is to rep resent the student body of Texas A&M both on and off the play ing field. I will use my experi ence as a junior yell leader to represent you even better as a senior. A&M is a great Univer sity, but the students are what makes it great. I would feel very honored if I could lead you, The Twelfth Man, again when we beat the Hell Outta t.u. Gig ’Em Aggies! Steve Lord junior philiosophy I am running for the office of yell leader because I feel that I have the necessary motivation and knowledge that a person in this position must have. It is es sential that a yell leader be of the caliber person that he will rep resent Texas A&M in a “fired- up” yet gentlemanly manner. I feel that I have the capability to distinguish the two and act accordingly. I will offer the stu dent body a well-rounded con stituency, that of being responsi ble to the Corps and the civilian populations. If elected, I will work for a more unified student body, more student participation in spring sports and a better in formed student body on tradi tions and events. Barry Sowerwine senior business analysis Howdy Aggies, my name is Barry Sowerwine, and I am run ning for senior yell leader. I love Texas A&M, and I am excited at the chance to lead the Twelfth Man. In the past three years I’ve seen what makes A&M the greatest University. The tradi tions and friendly atmosphere make the difference. Nowhere in the world could a person get the warm feeling that you get at A&M. I believe that this part of A&M is the most important, and if I am given the cnance to be yell leader, I will do everything possible to keep A&M the great school it is. Junior yell leaders Mark Trabing sophomore I have always wanted to be a yell leader because I believe thev are the one thing that really typify Texas A&M’s uniqueness. I want to uphold one of the oldest traditions of this University, the yell leader. I would also like to represent A&M and the Twelfth Man. I am imaginative and well- versed in the traditions of A&M. I have an enthusiastic spirit, and the ability to excite and involve others. If elected, I will share my enthusiasm to better represent the whole stu dent body everywhere I go. I realize the Corps is the back bone of A&M, but this back bone represents a small per centage of the student body. One cannot function with out the other, the whole body must be present to function properly. V. k w a tl t( t( n f< tl 1 a ti e tl C k tl tl Si tl s t a I By D
