T-Book [second version], 2008-2011.

The T-Book includes information on Georgia Tech traditions and activities, such as the Ramblin' Reck mascot and the Ramblin' Reck Club; Tech history; athletics and sports; fans and school spirit; school songs and cheers; historic figures and traditions; freshmen traditions; advice to new students (RATS); campus legends and symbolism; and Tech alumni. The books include welcome letters to new students, as well as a listing of student organizations and information on the T-Book staff. Each book contains a table of contents. The booklets are comprised of text and color images. This newly revived T-Book (2008- ) published by the Ramblin' Reck Club places more emphasis on Tech's legacy than did the T Book (circa 1904-1969) published by the YMCA, the latter of which served primarily as a student handbook.
