Welcome to Aggieland

Sports isn't all it is for us... These are the words from a new promotional video... Words we live by.

There is a place where tradition is a way of life,
character is stitched into the local fabric
and leaders are a natural resource.

It's a place where the future is knocking at the door
but the past always has a seat at the table.

Here everyone's glass is half full
and cynicism is on a permanent leave of absence.

It's where fish learn to swim,
elephants never forget,
and a horse could carry someone all the way to a Nobel prize.

Every man or woman can make a difference here,
especially the 12th one,
and you're as likely to get a statue for a selfless act as you are for a heroic one.

The greater good is a required course and
a helping hand is a required gesture.

This is Aggieland.

Where optimism is an alternative energy source
and acts of integrity are on everyone's to do list.
History is made every day and remembered every year.
And diversity isn't just a fashionable term, it's a common thread.

It's a place where pushing ideas forward
doesn't mean pushing values aside.

Welcome to Aggieland.

Enjoy your stay.
