I didn't go, because I knew the forced fun and "let's run around and be crazy" just wasn't for me.

I always thought it was a pretty well-respected organization. What's happened since I graduated? Or was it always this way?

I don't think so. One of my friends was a T-camp counselor a couple times.

So, the whole thing is stupid because you guys don't like some of the dou**e-bag counselors?

Really?

I was in the Corps and loved it...but there were some real dou**e-bags in the Corps. Same goes for Aggie Republicans, etc., etc....

I did read that thread. I needed a more in-depth explanation to truly understand the dewshy suckage that Fish Camp apparently is.

There's nothing wrong with fishcamp. The zeitgeist of the General board a few years back was one of "I'm too cool for school" and ripping on fishcamp, criticizing those being 'overly Aggie', etc. became the in thing over there. Now it's kind of their shtick. I wouldn't worry too much about it.


Now the thing that I call livin' is just bein' satisfied with knowin' I got no one left to blame

fish camp is by far the most self serving fakest thing i have ever experienced. i went and was a counselor. it deserves the rep of being a dewshy club of semi-heterosexual males swathed in all kinds of flamboyant cr/p in the name of "being aggie" and all the hugging and dry humping that goes en route to the mandatory booze binge at the end where half of the counselors end up fooling around with each other while conveniently forgetting the orgy of emotionalism they had at their "campfires" where they shared stories and cried on other dudes shoulders. i'm embarrassed to have been a part of it and would not mind seeing it done away with and turned into an on campus deal that would be less controlled by such a weird group of people.

Didn't go, but I dated a girl who was a fish camp counselor, and she was pretty hot but a bit high maintenance, so I dunno. I guess I'm pretty neutral towards it. YMMV.

Thanks, skipper_ag06. That is more what I was looking for.

Neon still sucks.

I'm a fish camp counselor and I can see where alot of these negative opinions come from. Some counselors make it kind of fake and don't really care. I went in with the attitude of helping some freshmen adjust to college. In fact, I'm pulling for one of my freshmen to give him a chance to get better seats for the Nebraska game. I don't wear Neon and I'm a civil engineering major. (I feel like most people think of counselors as fratty and crappy students).

You know that really annoying, overly-hyper, attention hog, possibly gay if male, flamboyant person that you know that says things like "awesome," "totes," "presh," etc.? That is a fish camp counselor. You can spot them from a mile away. They think they're the hottest, funniest person ever. They can only be described as "really fish camp."

Fish Camp promotes fake Aggie Spirit and they yell "Hump it AGS!" right before the yell in spirit.... Ticks me off every time!

That's pretty harsh but true nonetheless.

Why do I not have respect for Fish Camp? Because it is supposed to be a cool thing for freshmen where they learn the traditions, meet new friends, and start the adjustment toward college life. That may or may not happen, but FC is first and foremost for the counselors.

Most FC counselors do it to meet new people, find a significant other, or to create a new group of booze buddies. That stupid "After Camp Policy" is the most ridiculous garbage I've ever heard of. An entire weekend dedicated to drinking yourself to alcohol poisoning and hooking up with everyone else in your camp is so trashy and pathetic. Maybe I have so little respect for it because a girl told me she cheated on her BF multiple times during ACP, and it was no big deal to neither her nor the other counselors.

Essentially, it's a big obnoxious clique of neon-wearing uncover nazis. They'll hang out with their fish for a while then never see them again. Unless, of course, the freshmen decide to be FC counselors.

There is nothing "fratty" about dressing in neon, putting your hair in mohawks, and doing gay ass "camp cheers" at football games. Please don't associate us with yall.
