What we are:

Block and Bridle is the SHSU Animal Science Club. We serve as the central reporting station and major funding provider for all of the animal science related teams in the Agriculture Department such as Beef Cattle Show Team, Meat Goat Show Team, Livestock Judging Team, Horse Judging Team, Swine Show Team, and several others. We host many types of community service activities as well as many fun activities within the Agriculture Department. All of our members have a great time, but we get a lot of work done as well.
