There are countless traditions here at TAMS, and by creating this page, we're counting on future generations to keep them alive. Don't fail us.

Academics

  • Running to seminar so that Gruver doesn't yell at you
    • "Early is on-time, on-time is late"
  • Card swipes (and frantically telling friends that Melissa is standing threateningly at the entrance with the menacing black box and laptop in her hands)

McConnell Hall

Food

  • Walmart / Razor Ranch / Sharetea runs
  • Eating at the Taste, Oriental Garden (OG), Chipotle, or Denton Square for celebrations. Or just because you're sick and tired of eating the same dining hall food for weeks straight.
  • Flocking to Bruce for breakfast after 8 AM bio
  • Bruce Waffle Wednesdays
  • Bruce's birthday celebrations every Wednesday
    • And consequently, cake every Wednesday

Miscellaneous

  • Texas Academy of Misplaced Stuff
  • TAMS W's / TAMS L's. Or as I like to call it, The Duality of Man
    • Typically, this includes leftover food from school-wide events
  • Cramming onto the D-Park bus
    • Which is especially unfortunate for the sad, sad CS track people during the hot, hot summers
  • Abi Kumar's post-bio cookies (2019-2020)
  • Running to CVS
  • TAMS Vans
  • Halloween
    • Free Insomnia Cookies
    • Discounted Chipotle
    • Wing trick-or-treating
    • Bruce Haunted House
  • Realizing that you forgot your ID when it's lunchtime and sneaking into dining halls by "borrowing" a friend's ID
  • Watching movies with friends at the Business Leadership Building over the weekend
  • Tabling and buying things even though we're all broke
  • Wall of Salt
  • Exec season
    • Bribing friends with printers to print your exec apps because they're due at 11:59 PM but curfew is at 11:00 PM and the computer lab closes at 11:00 PM
