The Texas A&M Mother's Club is a service organization. Its objective is to "contribute in every way to the comfort and welfare of the boys, and to co-operate with the faculty of the College in maintaining a high standard of moral conduct and intellectual attainment." In 1922, Mrs. H. L. Peoples set forth this challenge for mothers of A&M students in her organization of the first Mother's Club in Dallas. The clubs became a Federation in 1928 with Mrs. F. L. Thomas as its first president. The Federation is gaining new clubs and new strength each year. Currently, it has more than 90 clubs in the state and well over 6,000 paid club membership. It has been the pleasure of A&M Mothers to be actively involved with student life in the past. It is the desire of A&M Mothers to continue this activity on a larger expanded scale and at the same time to retain the personal contact with the individual student. |
