MONTGOMERY COUNTY, TX For Aggies in Montgomery County and throughout Texas, Wednesday s Muster will be a little more meaningful this year.
Aggie Muster, held every year on April 21 to commemorate Texas A&M students and former students who died the previous year, is an opportunity for Aggies to get together to reminisce about their time at the school and posthumously honor their fellow Aggies.
Muster 2021 will offer a hybrid viewing option where attendees are able to view a live stream of the campus ceremony inside Kyle Field on Wednesday, April 21, at 7 p.m. The Campus Muster Ceremony, held inside Reed Arena, is reserved for families of the honorees and the Class of 1971.
After being unable to gather in-person to stand for the fallen last year due to COVID-19, the Muster Committee felt it was important to find a way to allow students and families to be physically present for Muster this year. However, this was no easy task as the committee did not know until recently that the ceremony could be held in person, Roll Call and Families Executive and psychology senior Alison Richter said.
