  2. Colors • Maroon and White • WT A&M is part of the Texas A&M university system.

  3. Location – Canyon, TX • Canyon is located in the Texas Panhandle. • 605 Miles from Humble/Kingwood to Canyon, or about 9 hours and 30 minutes by car.

  4. Palo Duro Canyon Palo Duro Canyon is just outside of Canyon, TX. Canyons are caused by rivers. Here are the WTAMU dancers at beautiful Palo Duro Canyon.

  5. Academics

  6. Mascot: Buffalos or “Buffs” • 750 pound live Buffalo named “Thunder” • The buffalo has broad shoulders, is very strong, and is a fighter. • Long ago, Buffalo roamed the Texas Panhandle, but most were killed by hunters.

  7. Bucky the Buffalo This loveable mascot can be seen throughout the year at football, basketball and volleyball games and he makes special appearances all over the Panhandle.

  8. Herdsmen Spirit Organization ~ specially trained by experts to handle Thunder.

  9. “Buffalo Stampede” Everybody loves a touchdown, but it's the traditional buffalo run across the field that really gets everyone excited! Sometimes when Thunder starts running really fast, the Herdsmen can’t keep up…and occasionally fall down! His face says it all!

  10. Hand Signal • Fold your middle three fingers to your palm, extend your thumb and little finger and you've got your own set of buffalo horns.

  11. Homecoming • Each year on Friday night of Homecoming Week, the University President lights a 40-foot tall bonfire that can be seen for miles and miles across the Panhandle horizon and will burn almost all night. • On Saturday, there is a Homecoming Parade through the streets of Canyon, Fair on the Square downtown, home-cooked barbecue and many other fun activities.

  12. Eternal Flame • The Eternal Flame, located at the west entrance to campus, was constructed in 1966 by the WTAMU Alumni Association. • Representing the burning desire to learn, the flame is a symbol for the University and can be seen on the logo.

  13. Over 100 Years In 2010, WTA&M celebrated its birthday of 100 years.
