LOUD AND PROUD CAMPUS AMBASSADORS
For more than 100 years, the Yell Leaders have lived the Aggie Spirit for which Texas A&M University is known. These five exceptional leaders are elected by students to embody the official spirit organization of the university.
They lead Aggie fans in yells during athletic and other university events, using a variety of hand signals called “pass backs” to direct and intensify the crowd. The Yell Leaders are Texas A&M’s campus ambassadors, leading yells and representing the 12th Man at athletic events, Aggie Mother’s Clubs across Texas and the U.S., and making regular appearances at campus events for current, new, and prospective students, former students, administrators, visitors, and dignitaries.
They lead Midnight Yell Practice, which has been dubbed a “College Football Bucket List” item and is one of Texas A&M’s most well-known traditions.
Now you have the opportunity to become part of this enduring tradition by making a financial contribution that will help ensure the future for the Yell Leaders’ program.
