History
The original Schuhmacher Hall, also known as Dorm 7, was located on the Corps of Cadets quadrangle on the south side of campus
from 1939 until 1969, when it was renamed Leonard Hall in honor of Congressional Medal of Honor winner Turney W.
Leonard. In 1964, the current Schuhmacher Hall was built on the north side of campus. In 1973, Schuhmacher Hall became the first civilian residence hall in the
history of A&M to top the 3.0 GPR mark.
Schuhmacher Hall is named for Henry C. Schuhmacher of Houston, head of a wholesale grocery business bearing his name. He became a member of the Board of Directors of
Texas A&M in 1925. Mr. Schuhmacher served as chairman of the
Prairie View State Normal and Industrial College Committee of the Board and devoted much time and interest in
behalf of that institution. He also served as a member of the Board Committees on Auditing and Finances and as a member of the Executive Committee. Mr. Schuhmacher
died in 1940.
The residents of Schuhmacher Hall, known as the Seamen, had been building Fightin’ Texas Aggie Bonfire for over
thirty years. There were four lines of Bonfire pots, all traditionally held by Pissheads. The Yellow Pot (established in 1982) led
Bonfire activities for the dorm, assisted by the Puke Pot, the Drunk Pot and the Clueless Pot (also known as “Hoss Line”). During the ’90s the Seamen
went to cut with the Hobby Heartthrobs and the Legett
Longnecks. Other dorm activities included Replant, Big Event and attending traditional
Aggie events such as Muster and Silver Taps. Schuhmacher also held a baseball throw in front of
Sbisa each year and adopted two miles of U.S. Highway 21 between Bryan and Caldwell. The famous HHH symbol derives
from the fact that, although often misspelled, Schuhmacher properly contains three Hs. Dorm yells in the ’80s and ’90s included the Dong yell, the Seamen
yell, the Walton Wussies yell and the K Ramp yell, none of which is appropriate for reproduction here. The first known Schuhmacher yell, back when residents were known as
the Shockers, was
Schuhmacher Shockers!
Closest to the Chicken!
Never took a lickin’!
Best damn dorm on campus!
In 2005, for the first time since Bonfire fell in 1999, Schuhmacher had new Crew Chiefs. They worked on
Student Bonfire.
