Have a question for the Aggies. The Corp is a small but very loud part of the student enrollment. Seems to me most if not all of these “traditions” come from the Corp.

Are the Corp generally accepted on campus? Just seems they create a lot of embarrassment for the regular student.

I don't think this pullout day with the redass pictures is just for the student military kids. It looks like it is for all students.

I saw the picture posted above. Do all students get naked and have a picture taken of their painted backside? Is that legal? Do they force students to do this?

I mean it's a balance of tradition and annoyance but largely depends on who you ask.

The corps of cadets is generally seen as an over glorified ROTC program, although we do understand it's A&M roots and most traditions stem from the all male military college days.

I had good friends in the corps and probably knew as much or more than most 'non-regs' about the happenings and everyday life of the corps.

I would say on-campus, the corps is mostly ignored. People cheer for the band at half time and some of the sayings used in the corps are on occasion carried over to non-reg vocabulary. Others straight up despise the corps presence and think they shouldn't get the attention they have during football games due to some embarrassing scenes over the years.

It's a mixed bag really but generally I would lean on the side of the corps mostly being ignored outside of the half time performance.
