how the association is already pre
sent on campus.
“We haven’t done a good job of
telling them where their money is
going,” she said. “Letting them
know that their money sent the Ag
gie Band and the yell leaders to away
games or that the association is a
major supporter of Muster would
certainly get more former students
involved.”
Glass said the association is also
planning parties before Midnight Yell
Practice, organizing direct mail pro
grams and looking into a satellite of
fice in the MSC to increase aware
ness of the association among
current students.
Monica Harmon, Class of ’97 and
an assistant lecturer in speech com
munications, said she experienced
the network of Aggies within a week
of graduation when someone saw
her ring and offered her a job.
“After I explained to him that I
didn’t need a job and was going to
graduate school, he told me, ‘When
you get your master’s degree, give
me a call,”’ she said. “You always
hear about Aggie ring stories, but 1
had no idea it would happen so fast.”
