Boot Dance

Each year Boot Dance is held for the Junior Class. Although the name reflects the Senior Boots the Juniors in the Corps of Cadets will have the privilege to wear starting at Final Review, this dance is designed for all Juniors at Texas A&M, including those who are "non-reg" (not in the Corps).

Boot Dance has been a tradition since the 1920's. It was yet another excuse for the Ags to host a dance and invite all the lovely ladies from the surrounding towns.
