About the Corps of Cadets Hall of Honor

The Corps of Cadets Hall of Honor recognizes former cadets who contribute to A&M in a manner that is above and beyond the call and who possess the values upon which the Corps was founded. The Gala is an evening to pay tribute to those cadets who exemplify the Texas Aggie Spirit. The CCA hosts this annual black-tie event attended by inductees, their families, distinguished visitors, CCA members and other supporters.
