A reminder for Rick Perry ahead of his testimony:

Aggie Code of Honor

For many years Aggies have followed a Code of Honor, which is stated in this very simple verse:

The Aggie Code of Honor is an effort to unify the aims of all Texas A&M men and women toward a high code of ethics and personal dignity. For most, living under this code will be no problem, as it asks nothing of a person that is beyond reason.
