Dear Fightin Texas Aggie Class of 2018, My name is David J. Trigg 15 and I will be serving as your Corps Commander for the 2014-2015 year. Welcome to Texas A&M. I cannot begin to tell you how excited we are to have you join our elite and phenomenal Corps of Cadets. We have been working all of last year and this summer to prepare for your arrival. I just want to leave you with a quick note before you arrive tomorrow. Tomorrow is the first day of the rest of your life. It marks a monumental decision you have made to join a program that is solely dedicated to creating value based leaders that impact the world. Do not take this decision lightly or without a fair amount of pride. You chose to be part of our rigorous and challenging program. We in return will provide you with the academic support, leadership training, and Aggie family that will be with you forever. People often say the Corps is not for everyone. I do not believe that is accurate. The Corps is a voluntary organization. Any one can join or quit at anytime. Therefore, all types of people can join the Corps of Cadets. But few have the courage to challenge themselves past their standard potential. You have already impressed me, class of 2018, just by signing the dotted line. Thank you for once again proving that members of our generation are still dedicated to becoming men and women of character who are prepared to face and solve the challenges of the 21st century. And we will get you there. In closing, the next year will mold you into the man or woman you wish to become. But like all things, how much you can succeed, is purely measured on how hard you are willing to work. Do not be timid nor daunted by the beginning of this year. Rather, be motivated by who you can become by the end. Work hard, trust your leadership, succeed academically, and stay motivated because we are motivated for you. Thanks and Gig Em, David J. Trigg 15 Corps Commander 2014-2015
