Many terms are unique to, or hold a special meaning connected with, Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas. The University, often called A&M or TAMU, is a coeducational public research university and is the flagship institution of the Texas A&M University System. It opened in 1876 as the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas, the first public institution of higher education in that state.[1] In 1963, the Texas Legislature renamed the school to Texas A&M University to reflect the institution's expanded roles and academic offerings. The letters "A&M" no longer have any explicit meaning but are retained as a link to the university's past.[2]
As a Senior Military College, Texas A&M is one of three public universities with a full-time, volunteer Corps of Cadets. It provides more commissioned officers to the United States Armed Forces than any other school outside the service academies.[3]
Texas A&M University's history as an all male military institution has led to a unique traditions and terminology. Some phrases come from traditions that include Aggie Bonfire and the athletics program. Others phrases are locations and landmarks around the campus. While most of these terms are used exclusively by Aggies, some are used by the university's rivals. Some terms exclusively used by the Corps of Cadets are not included to narrow the list size.

- 本調査では岩手県の野生の鳥類における鉛汚染の状況を調べる目的で，2008年10月から2009年9月までの間に岩手県内で救護された野生のガンカモ類および猛禽類の血中鉛濃度の測定を行った。猛禽類では高濃度の鉛汚染は確認されなかったが，ガンカモ類では1例が確認され，さらに低濃度での汚染を受けているガンカモ類が25％と高率に存在し，ガンカモ類が何らかの鉛の汚染を受けている可能性が示唆された。
