HOWDY
“Howdy” is a distinctly western form of greeting. It is the official greeting of Texas A&M University and used between students, faculty, and employees and especially towards visitors. When the word “Howdy” became popular at the University is unknown. But its continued use is one part of what makes the campus the friendliest campus in the nation. It’s simplicity and sincerity distinguish Aggies worldwide.
