It’s going to be a busy weekend in Aggieland. The campus of Texas A&M will host ring day and several sporting events. Here’s the full list so you don’t miss out.

Ring Day

Of all the Aggie traditions, the Aggie ring holds a special place in the heart of Texas A&M alumni. Years of hard work and dedication result in a degree, but also a symbol to the world that you are a part of the Aggie Network.

The full schedule for Ring Day is available here. The best places to park are south of campus off of Dexter Rd. If you’re brave enough to venture into campus traffic, the garages are an affordable option to attend the ceremony for an hour or two.
