Senior boots[edit]

Within the Texas A&M Corps of Cadets, seniors are given the privilege to wear distinctive brown leather boots, known as "senior boots." These boots are one of the most visible and recognizable institutions of the Aggie Corps, and remain one of the lasting images of Texas A&M University.^[24]

The tradition of senior boots came about in 1914, when the Corps of Cadets changed uniforms from the West Point style. The seniors wanted a way to differentiate themselves from the other classes, so they began wearing officer boots, which evolved into the senior boots worn today. By 1925, the boot style was integrated into the official cadet uniform, as a "knee-height officer boot, of a light brown or tan." Lucchese's bootery in San Antonio became the main supplier of boots.^[24]

By 1932, competition closer to campus sprang up. Joseph Holick, founder of the Fightin' Texas Aggie Band, opened Holick's that year, and his competition soon included Victor's, Russell's, and others. The average price for a pair of boots in 1932 was $32.50.^[24] During World War II, due to the leather diversion to the war effort, Aggie seniors had to buy or inherit their boots from former cadets. By 1977, the price had risen to $200. Today, senior boots are normally ordered during freshman year and cost $700 to $1,900, but 85% of seniors in the Corps still purchase them. Seniors also have the option to apply to borrow a donated pair of boots through prior-worn boots donations from former cadets.^[25]

To assist in removing their boots, seniors are allowed to yell "I need a fish!" at which point all available freshmen in the senior's outfit will race—and sometimes fight—to assist.^[26]

所有跟帖： 

• 第一年最难，学校里一堆穿boots的，不会只有4年纪才有吧， 相反穿新生制服的倒是少数。也可能4年纪是要求，2年纪开始是可以穿。 -燕子飞回来_88- ♀ (56 bytes) () 09/08/2019 postreply 15:08:27

• 新生确实被老生当学徒使唤，要习惯这些。我们跟带教上校聊过这事，他说是故意设计成这样的。 -燕子飞回来_88- ♀ (0 bytes) () 09/08/2019 postreply 15:11:42
