I was at the first meeting at Graduate Student Council where they brought up the "Grad Wildcat".
I was guilty of laughing out loud. Use the senior one... like everyone else who earned it.

It stands to reason, doesn't it, that if you progress to a new wildcat as a grad student, that you would do so again as a former student?
And then the next thing you know, a "Spirit" wildcat for fans who didn't attend..
and an "children's" wildcat for kids who want to go but haven't yet…
seems like a can of worms. But really, I don't care that much. Have fun with it. Keep "evolving".
Whoop.

Just leave it alone. I don't know any grad students who want a new wildcat
I do have a feeling though that no matter what comes of this, within a few short years, it will be practically non existent and grad students will just be doing the senior wildcat
This is so dumb. I take traditions very seriously, but developing a committee to decide on a hand sign is damned ridiculous. I did undergrad and graduate school at TAMU. Very few graduate students that I know who didn't attend TAMU for undergrad participate in any traditions in the first place.
If they want a wildcat so bad, let them live under the current system. First year grad students from other schools do the fish wildcat and get the crap beat out of em if they pull out. 4th-year-and-up grad students and former A&M undergrads do the senior wildcat. Or they can just do whatever the hell they want. No one gives a ****. No bills have to passed, no votes have to be taken.
What Vigna said. Grad students who didn't do their undergrad at A&M generally won't care and probably don't attend games, and the ones who did are just gonna keep using the senior wildcat.
Didn't watch the video, but when I was a grad student (98-01), I was told our wildcat was "We're smarter than you!" or something like that. No one bought it. And since I also did my udergrad at A&M, I just did my senior wildcat.

Sometimes as a 5th year (LAND major here so legit 5th
) we'd just do an "AY! Click!"... we had run out of "bullets".
Honestly these days I just do an "AY!" with no whoop.

Does your wife know?
My brother always just told me the appropriate grad student wildcat was the senior wildcat, but with middle fingers instead of index, because apparently, grad school makes you jaded.

I'm all for grad students feeling more included. Maybe that's the first step to getting them more involved.
But that's what I'm worried about. Where do the new wildcats end?
dumb, let them whoop up!
Can we have a Post-Baccalaureate Wild cat??
What about a BlinnTeam Wildcat??

I was a grad student at the Bush School a decade ago, and I'd estimate at least 50% of the students attended games, with non-Aggie undergrads being well represented. As I recall, everyone did the senior wildcat or no wildcat. Also, the vast majority went to silver taps at least once and purchased an Aggie ring upon graduation.
Dumb....and I was a grad student last year. Any grad student worth their salt will just do the SR wildcat
Grad students are the worst.

Can confirm, I was a grad student that did not do undergrad at A&M and I just did senior wildcat. Figured as a grad student I already knew how to shoot.
Just let everyone whoop.
There is an official number of AY's for the sophomore and jr. wildcats (5 and 3)? When did this come about.

....still waiting for the YouTube submission.

If Grad Students really want to create their own wildcat and they really are going to use it, good for them. I have no problem with that. If they prefer to use the Senior wildcat, also OK by me. As long as they go to the games and support our team, it's all good.
