Dr. Gates makes me proud to be an Aggie. Whereever you may be, remember Governor Coke's advice to the students. Then, go on with your bad self, the Aggie nation is 100% behind you.

This has got to be the coolest thing since Dr Gates actually ARRIVED in Aggieland! He's proven to be an innovative thinker and problem solver, but going "stealth" on Texags is BRILLIANT! What an amazing way to keep his ear to the ground on all the goings-on of the current and former students!
God Speed, Dr Gates! You're welcome back to Aggieland anytime! Take Care and Gig 'em!

Mrs13Wins,
Awesome picture. I can't imagine anything that would make Ring Day better than a picture with The Man.

Awesome picture, Mrs13Wins.
I can't imagine anything that would make Ring Day better than a picture with the man himself.

Dr. Gates-
You can hit me when I walk across stage for all the mean things I've said about you on here. I may not agree with some of the things you've done while here, but I'll appologize for the snide comments. This really has changed my opinion of you. I had no idea you listened or cared.
Gig 'em, good luck, and BTHO TinkleBox.

Dr. Gates,
Wouldn't surprise me one bit to see you pop into the Chicken one day unannounced. Heck, I'll even let you buy me a beer.
Best of luck to you and your family. You would have made Sully and Gen. Rudder proud.

It is the time for brow-beating politics.
The american people need a person who can speak their damned mind.
Both houses are so out of touch with America.

God bless you, Dr. Gates. You are truly an honorable man of courage and conviction. You were the right man, in the right place, at the right time, when you chose to come to A&M. I believe the same is true now of your decision to serve our county. As much as we will miss you, we are grateful that you will be watching over our servicemen and women, and providing your strong leadership in determining our defense policies.
Please come back “home” when you’ve completed that service. You will remain in the thoughts and prayers of your Aggie family always.

Dr. Gates, Thanks and God go with you. It will be a comfort to KNOW a man of character is in this position regardless of what the media may say in the future. When your term is complete, I hope you will return to us in some capacity. If need be, we'll create a new position .... system potentate... well anyway, we'll look forward to your return.

"Were we to become a top ten university and lose that spirit, those traditions, our culture, we would be nothing more than another giant education factory. A big brain with no heart. Hell, we might as well be in Austin." -Dr. Robert Gates

Dr. Gates, you have done such great things for this university and for that I thank you! This school is certainly going to miss you. I can't wait to see you in your new position, I am sure you will excel in that as well.
I am fortunate enough to not only have gotten my diploma handed to me by you, but to have also spent some time picking your brain. I drove you to an Aggie Mom's Club meeting in Houston a couple of years back and to this day, I cherish that as one of my most memorable college experiences. Now it means even more to think that I have been in the same Suburban as a Secretary of Defense!
Thanks and Gig 'Em!
