There have been fewer colleges with a more storied history than the University of Texas A&M. The institution was founded in 1876. When it was founded, it was founded as the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas. Nearly nine decades later, the Texas legislature opted to rename the school to Texas A&M University. Texas A&M has the second largest student population in the United States. Their team’s nickname is the Aggies.
As a result of their past history, it goes without saying that the logo has undergone plenty of changes.
Of course, the first logo that the institution had revolved around its old name. The old logo features a maroon wordmark “Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas” and “Est 1876.” in a wavy form. In addition, the stylized letters “AMC” are intertwined. The letters are “A” & “M” were colored maroon while the “C” logo was colored in white. The “C” also is in a font that is reminiscent of the font that the Chicago Bears have.
This logo lasted from 1876 to 1907.
In 1908, the logo changed that they had the intertwined letters "AMC" in maroon. The “A” and “M” were in maroon. However, the key difference is that the "C" is colored in maroon.
The school went with a completely different change in their next logo upgrade. The logo consisted of a big "T" bold wordmark in the middle that was surrounded by a smaller "A" wordmark and a smaller "M" wordmark. The "A" is to the left of the big "T" wordmark while the "M" is to the right of the big "T" wordmark.
The logo was colored brown. Yet, the logo had a white outline.

After this version, the logo was upgraded slightly in terms of color and boldness. The big "T" wordmark remained in the middle and the "A" and "M" wordmark remained to the left and right respectively. However, the color of the logo was now maroon and it was much bolder than the previous logo. The "T" wordmark has a bolder white outline that can be seen quite clearly across the top and the middle.
Recently, this school made a major upgrade that should invoke pride who live deep in the heart of Texas. The logo consisted of the previous logo format with the big "T" wordmark in the middle, "A" wordmark in the left, and "M" to the right. However, this logo is colored white. A maroon outline can be noticed in the logo.
The key differentiator is the drawing of the state of Texas that surrounds the newly white wordmarks stayed above. The drawing of the state of Texas is colored maroon. This new logo will help to boost school pride as well as state pride.
