Fish camp has become selective in that you have to act like a flamboyant fa**ot to be a counselor. It's absurd

Counselors are told from the beginning that they need to watch their behavior because of situations just like this. They are the face of Texas A&M to many and need to act like it!


You know, I'm kind of glad this happened now so they see the effects of their behavior. It's a shame that this had to involve the bonfire memorial, but maybe that perplexing organization will be better. I hope.

A mistake is posing like an idiot at a site that you didn't know was a memorial. How is this an example of a mistake?

Yeah these guys ****ed up, but they are your fellow aggies and had no intention of dishonoring the bonfire memorial.


Respect is one of the core values of A&M,


and while these students were not thinking,


the complete lack of respect for the exact organization that helps keep our sacred traditions alive is absurd.


There are a lot of people involved in fish camp that are bettering this university,


to those of you that sit on TexAgs and insult them, what have you done for Texas A&M? Thrown your opinion around online?

In situations like these, generally, its the families of the victims that take the pitchforks out of the hands of the mob.

Anyone trying to defend what was a complete lack of respect and good judgment needs to take a good long serious look at their time at A&M and ask if they really understand why it is that old Ags are proud to be known as Texas Aggies.

I have watched people lay flowers, stand in solemn reverence, and breakdown in tears at the exact portals that are pictured. I have seen thousands of Aggies hold flickering candles on the mound where that group shot was taken while bagpipes played Amazing Grace.

I deeply question whether any one of those adults has spent a single minute at a Bonfire Memorial service.

Literally defacing a grave site.

Shame on everyone involved.

are just using this as an excuse to **** on fish camp: would you even be concerned with this if it had been students that weren't affiliated with any organization?


I have no axe to grind here and I know nothing about the organization. I agree with everything most people are saying about the photos being disrespectful, a demonstration of extremely poor judgement , etc.

The only proper response from those who were part of this would be to admit that it was disrespectful and stupid, apologize as a group to the school, apologize to the families of the twelve who died, have individual offenders (students who posed, the photographer, and whoever approved this) meet with the family members of the students whose memorial they disrespected, and accept whatever sanctions or embarrassment might come their way as a result of this. In other words, you effed up. Take your medicine and shut up.

However, this "circle the wagons" response coming from the offenders is just as disappointing as the photos themselves, and a pretty good indicator as to how such a disastrous choice was made in the first place. It's become cliche to say 'they just don't get it", but in this case, it way be the best way to describe the disconnect between their actions and their ideals. They just don't get it.

The one of the saddest parts of all of this is that 30 some-odd people with ties to Texas A&M couldn't deduce that this was a bad idea. Are we that far removed from 1999 after all the lawsuits and the gag orders and that this many students can simply not know that this is a terrible idea for a bit?

I'm just saying that this is a new you.

They are real. And they messed up. I don't think their lives are in danger.

Just their Facebook status.

As a former FC counselor, it really disgusts me to see current counselors disgrace Bonfire Memorial. Not all counselors in camp are like this...but it's idiots like these guys that make the organization as a whole look bad. C'mon, how STUPID could you be to take pictures on the grounds where lives were lost?! They're not children...they're adults that need to accept the consequences of their stupidity.
