I'm excited to share that we are launching The Chancellor's Cup, a competition that will celebrate school pride, excellence and the unique identity of our member universities.

The first Chancellor's Cup will be awarded on Aug. 29 when @PVAMU travels to Stephenville to take on @TarletonState in a nationally televised football game on ESPN2. Following the game, I'll have the privilege of presenting the Cup to the winning university.

It’s our goal for The Chancellor’s Cup to grow to include additional athletic competitions, academic contests, student activities and other events that showcase the remarkable talent across our @tamusystem.

The Chancellor's Century Council will serve as the founding and permanent presenting sponsor of The Chancellor's Cup.

The future of construction is being built here at The Texas A&M University System.

Backed by a $249,373 grant, researchers from @etamuniversity, @TAMUTexarkana and @TarletonState are developing a new kind of concrete that is stronger, longer-lasting, self-healing, and better for the environment: https://t.co/kTSvyje79Q

Route 66 turns 100 this year, and its most famous Texas stop sits right in our backyard.

Ten Cadillacs buried nose-first in a Panhandle field, covered in decades of spray paint, still draw thousands of visitors from around the world. A @WTAMU professor explains why: https://t.co/HoSfziV6AK

Nursing students at @IslandCampus will now get paid for their clinical rotations.

Project SNIPS, a $300,000 partnership with @ccmedcenter, is the first program of its kind in the Coastal Bend. Ten students are in the inaugural cohort, with graduation set for spring 2027: https://t.co/aCxHQI9cl9

The roots of the A&M System are in agriculture.  We’re proud of @TarletonState alumnus Colton Buckley, Chief of the Natural Resources Conservation Service, and the critical leadership role he plays for our nation’s farmers and ranchers, helping keep working lands productive and resilient for generations to come.

[Tarleton State University @TarletonState]

Congratulations to Tarleton State alumnus Colton Buckley on his appointment as Chief of the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service. We're proud to see Texans leading at the national level and making an impact in conservation across the country 💜

Texas A&M Forest Service recently broke ground on a new facility in Nacogdoches.

For more than 100 years, @TXForestService has worked to protect Texans through forest conservation, education, and wildfire response. This building will serve the employees and firefighters who carry that mission forward for more than 32 million Texans: https://t.co/YUdgLKeuQA

For the soldiers and veterans of Central Texas, a new path into civilian careers just opened in downtown Killeen.

@TAMUCT launched The Forge Economic Development Incubator this spring, connecting veterans and military families with career services, entrepreneurship support, and advanced manufacturing through the university's Military Talent Pipeline. https://t.co/AqsicJW7ZS

Texas A&M University System Regents Sam Torn and Kelley Sullivan Georgiades visited @LosAlamosNatLab in June to learn more about the Texas A&M System Nuclear Security Office’s role in managing the facility. They also toured the Manhattan Project National Historical Park and visited V-Site, where the world’s first nuclear devices were assembled.

I am proud of the @AggieCorps for traveling this weekend to represent @TAMU in our nation’s capital. The Fish Drill Team, Ross Volunteer Company and Corps Color Guard were in Washington, D.C., to help celebrate America’s 250th birthday with the honor, discipline and tradition that make the Corps so special. They represented Texas, Texas A&M and our nation with distinction. Gig ’em!

“No one suffered more than the Aggies, so we will give it to them.” On this day in 1950, Texas Gov. Allan Shivers presented the state's replica Liberty Bell to @TAMU, honoring the Aggies who served in #WWII.

The bell normally hangs in the rotunda of the Academic Building, but will be relocated to the James A. Baker, III Pavilion at the George H.W. Bush Presidential Center while the building undergoes a $30 million renovation, approved by the Board of Regents this May: https://t.co/yPtnnBO6ok

One year ago, the July 4 floods changed Central Texas forever. Today our prayers are with every family who lost someone they love and those whose lives were taken too soon.

We also honor the first responders whose courage saved so many. Texas endures because of people like them.

[Texas A&M System @tamusystem]

A message from Robert L. Albritton, Chairman of The Texas A&M University System Board of Regents.

One year after the July 4 floods, we still grieve for the Texans we lost and for the families whose lives were changed forever.

We also remember the first responders, volunteers and neighbors who stepped forward when people needed them most.

The Texas A&M University System will continue to stand with these communities as they recover, rebuild and heal. We will not forget them.

Land of the free. Home of the brave. Happy Independence Day! 🇺🇸

[Texas A&M System @tamusystem]

Long before Texas was a U.S. state, it was helping feed the revolution.

As the United States marks 250 years of independence, a @TAMU history professor explains it's impossible to tell the story of America without Texas and Texans: https://t.co/qIpDTNxwjy

[Texas A&M University @TAMU]

Texas A&M is honored to be part of the America 250 Anniversary series, telling the story of our contributions to society through leadership and service. The series is now published on @USATODAY.

Together, we stand for the American Dream and believe higher education is still one of the surest paths to achieving it.

On this day in 1862, President Abraham Lincoln signed the Morrill Act into law, creating the nation's land-grant university system and opening the doors of higher education to working families across the country.

In Texas, that legislation led to the founding of the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas, now @TAMU.

The Second Morrill Act of 1890 went further, designating @PVAMU — founded in 1876 — as a land-grant institution and expanding access for generations of students.

[Texas Division of Emergency Management @TDEM]

At the Governor's direction, TDEM has deployed state resources to Colorado to support @COEmergency's wildfire response.

This effort supports coordination of voluntary agency activities, tracking unmet needs, and helping with donations management.

This month, 17 cannons that sank in the Savannah River during the American Revolution finally made it back to Georgia, thanks to @TAMU's Conservation Research Lab, one of the world's leading labs for restoring underwater artifacts.
