Just to Sully's right, in the open area in the front of Academic Plaza, sprawls one of the oldest live oaks on campus: the Century Tree.

Many large cities erect Christmas trees in the town square. One of the largest is in New York city. There's a national Christmas tree on the ellipse near the White House, with a yearly lighting ceremony.

Why should Aggieland be different?

This year on the night before reading days begin, on Tuesday evening of the last day of classes, we will band together as an Aggie student body to decorate the Century Tree for the coming holidays.

*****

The way this works: each of us will bring decorative items of our own choosing, whether ornaments or lights or garlands or ribbons or tinsel — we'll even be glad to help you place an angel or star to top the tree — the tree will be our own, the Fightin' Texas Aggie student body, the 12th Man.

We are the Aggies, the Aggies are we...

**NOTE** We request that you please avoid bringing glass or breakable ornaments if possible, as well as avoiding large-bulb light strings that will shatter with ease or leave notable debris in the case of breakage. **NOTE**
