So #TAMUhunt ended with a visit with none other than
President Loftin! I got a bowtie! We chatted about NASA and Aggie women’s basketball.
-- Nicole, PhD student
Lessons Learned:1. Not all students had Aggie apparel.2. Students had fun & made new friends. They also
wanted harder clues! 3. Students found social media shortcuts. There was a
need for modification. Hashtags help.
