    • Make plans to attend our 45-Year Class Reunion in Aggieland the weekend of September 12-14, 2025. The Ags play Notre Dame in Indiana on Saturday so we will have a great football game to watch.

Thank you in advance for your support!

Help Us Find Current Email Addresses for Our Classmates

Of our original 6,312 Classmates, 5,915 are living as of June 2024. We have mailing addresses for 5,550 and email addresses for 3,798. Since our class year is on the “electronic only” side of the Association’s digital divide, the 2,117 Classmates with unknown email addresses are not receiving the Class of ’80 newsletters or any of the general communications from the Association. Please help us connect with these folks by reviewing the list of names to see if someone you know is on it. You can reach out to them directly to have them update their email address on their profile with the Association or send it to one of the Class Agents and we’ll take care of getting it to the Association. The list is sorted alphabetically by last name, then first name and includes the city/state for their preferred mailing address. Please review the List of Un-Emailable Classmates.
