The remarkable history of Texas A&M is celebrated in exhibits throughout the university’s Association of Former Students. The Aggie Spirit is felt throughout exhibits that showcase Aggie traditions. Students, alumni and friends have the opportunity to lead an Aggie yell at Midnight Yell Practice, record their memories as an Aggie student, or get a unique 360-degree view of these time-honored traditions.
I acted as the lead designer for this project, directing a team of five exhibit designers and developers. Working with BBI Engineering in San Francisco, CA we co-developed media that was integrated with the associations larger database systems to facilitate updating media in the exhibits.
A two story tower of Aggie portraits draws visitors to the exhibits on the second floor.
