OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT Aggieland 1950 is a pictorial record and history of student life and college activities during the session 1949-50. It records a year of progress for A. and M ; one that the Class of 1950 may well review with pride. The achievements of the year represent the sum total of the acts and accomplishments of the many persons who con¬ stitute the A. and M. family. I trust that throughout the years this book may serve to refresh our memories of new friends we have made, new ideas we have mastered, and higher inspirations we have received as we have added a greater maturity to our judgment and strengthened our preparation for a life of useful service to our fellow man. Graduates of the college have ever lived up to the highest tradi¬ tion. I have confidence that you, the Class of 1950, will join your older brothers and reflect credit upon your Alma Mater. As you leave the college, you take with you my best wishes for a successful and useful life. President, 1947-1950 Acting President, 1943- F. C. Bolton President
