Howdy Ags,
It’s hard to believe but the year is half OVER! Where does the time go? We are planning activities for the remainder of the year so be sure to check out the ‘UPCOMING’ schedule listed below. We continue to offer our weekly club events and look forward to seeing you at one in the near future. We do our best to keep you up to date of all the AGGIE activities in the area in the hopes that you find something that peek your interest.
I was on campus recently and there was plenty of activity with new student conferences and of course no shortage of construction around town. I had the opportunity to meet with a recent graduate and he asked ‘what was College Station like when I was in school?’ Hard to believe it has been 30 years as well celebrate my class reunion this fall. Certainly not the same place and I am continually amazed at how it continues to grow.

Gig’Em,
David A. Johnson ’87
President, WCAMC

RECENT GRADUATES
Are you a ‘RECENT GRADUATE’ of Texas A&M? (within the last 5-7 years) If so the Association of Former Students is looking for ways to help you connect with your local A&M Club. That transition from school to the ‘REAL WORLD’ can be a little challenging, perhaps you are not sure where to begin. The Young Alumni Advisory Council would love to help you connect with 7,000+ Young Alumni who follow the Texas A&M Young Alumni Facebook page. If you are looking for ways to get plugged in this is a great way, in addition to the WCAMC. They also host a special weekend in the fall on campus. This year it will be Oct 27-28 during the Mississippi State weekend.
