Archived A&M photos can be popular with Aggies on social media, whether from A&M’s earliest years or from your Class’s own days on campus. Whenever possible, credit images from the sources below to the Texas A&M Cushing Memorial Library and Archives.
Pictures from the Aggieland
Thanks to the Class of 1949, all the Aggieland yearbooks (and even before, when the yearbooks had other names!) have been digitized by Cushing. Find them here: library.tamu.edu/yearbooks
Pictures from Cushing
Cushing has put many of their historic A&M photos on Flickr; two useful links are the full photostream and the page that lists all their albums.
Below are listed some albums of general interest to former students – but there are many more photos than these.
Searching Cushing’s full Flickr photostream for a particular year, building, event, name, organization or keyword can sometimes yield results. To do this, visit their photostream page and – instead of going directly to the search field (which can search all of Flickr) – first click the small magnifying glass just above the photos, on the right. This adds tags for “Cushing” and “Photos” to the search field. Type in your search terms after those tags, and you’ll now be searching only Cushing’s photos. (Be aware that sometimes the year listed in a photo's description is the year it was added to the collection or another year.)
Cushing's Flickr albums include:
Yell Leaders & Yell Practice
Ross Volunteers
Silver Taps
Aggie “T”
Bonfire
Elephant Walk
Reveille I – Reveille II – Reveille III – Reveille IV – Reveille V
