Texas A&M University Seeks Student Volunteers for 2025 Muster Hosts
In the heart of College Station, Texas, an exciting opportunity is on the horizon for Texas A&M University students! The Muster Committee is gearing up to select this year’s Muster Hosts, who will play a vital role in guiding and supporting families during the poignant 2025 Muster ceremony scheduled for April 21.

The Heart of Muster
So, what exactly is Muster? This cherished tradition originally began as a celebration of the anniversary of the Battle of San Jacinto, but it has beautifully evolved over the years. Today, it stands as a profound remembrance of former Aggies, especially those who lost their lives in the preceding year. Every spring semester, more than 300 Muster ceremonies take place nationwide, with the largest ceremony held at Reed Arena in College Station.
Role of the Muster Hosts
Muster Hosts have a critical responsibility. They ensure hospitality and provide guidance to families throughout the ceremony, promoting a meaningful experience during what can be an emotional time. The role not only focuses on the logistics of the event but also speaks to the heart of the Aggie community values — respect, kindness, and attentiveness. Many families that attend have little to no prior experience with Texas A&M, making it even more essential for hosts to embody these values as they welcome them into the Aggie family.
What’s in It for Students?
Becoming a Muster Host is not just a service; it’s a profound journey of connection. Those who have served in this role often report feeling a deeper bond with the Aggie community and a strengthened sense of character. In addition, participating means being part of something larger than oneself, an opportunity to represent Aggie Core Values to families in need.

This is your chance, Texas A&M students, to step up, embrace the challenge, and contribute to a cherished tradition that honors lives well-lived. Don’t miss the opportunity to be part of a touching event that brings the Aggie community together!
