An Appreciation For the first time since entering the A. M. College, the Class of ’13 has an opportunity to express its appreciation of services rendered and of kind words spoken to the Class and for the College. At the very beginning of this volume, we desire to express our appreciation of Professor F. E. Giesecke, formerly College Architect, and Head of the Department of Architecture at this place, and now in charge of the School of Architecture at the University of Texas. The A. M. College was formally opened for the reception of stu¬ dents October 4, 1876. Six years later, while the school was still in its infancy, F. E. Giesecke was admitted to the Freshman Class. He was a hard student, stood high with his schoolmates, and graduated with honors in 1886. For twenty-six years after he was graduated from the College, he served his Alma Mater, The State, and the Youth of Texas, faithfully and well. He was a “friend in need” to all who knew him, and more especially the Corps of Cadets. He remembered his own school days at the College, that feeling of depression and homesickness that natur¬ ally comes to the boy who leaves home to attend College, those trials and tribulations which are the part of the life of every cadet, and his smile, warm handshake and helpful advice have eased the mind of many a poor cad.et. As a member of the Discipline Committee, he was fair and impartial in all his decisions, never questioned the honor or in¬ tegrity of the student, and was firm in the punishment of the delin¬ quent, when punishment was due. We speak of these things in appreciation of him as an officer of the College, in which we as students and we as citizens own our part. He bears the respect and admiration of the graduates of the past thirty years, as well as our own. Wherever he may go, and whatever he may do, the good wishes of the Class of ’13 will attend him. 9
