Impact of Fish Aides

"Fish Aides is an organization that grabs you and pulls you into the Aggie family. Before Fish Aides, we are merely 40 wandering and lost freshmen who know little about our new environment, our new lives, and the people who surround us. During Fish Aides, we bond. We mesh. We have awesome times while making unbelievable memories. And after Fish Aides, we are one. We walk away with knowledge, with confidence, with experiences that have strengthened us, and with companions that will last a lifetime."

"Fish Aides is the most fulfilling adventure I've ever experienced. It has most definitely changed my life."

“Fish Aides is a great Freshman Leadership Organization that takes 40 people, that knows nothing about each other at the beginning of the year and turns them into leaders.”

“It[Fish Aides] is the perfect arena to find out who you are at such a big stage in your life.”

“It’s more than just an organization, it’s like a family.”

“Without Fish Aides I would be a completely different person.”

“Fish Aides has taught me so much about relationships and how to work with people, especially people that are very ambitious and have great aspirations, the main thing that I have gotten out of Fish Aides is taking the time to learn from people…it’s one of the most incredible things that Fish Aides has taught me.”

“It is a microcosm of what Texas A&M really means; it's about these close relationships we have with people, it’s about this willingness to serve other people, it’s about this…it’s the spirit, I can’t explain it any other way, it’s the “Spirit that ne’er be told”…it really honest to God is something special.”
