The semester is winding down at Texas State, and soon many students who live in dorms will have to move elsewhere for the holiday break. Leocadia O'Brien has more in this Bobcat Update…

Most students will go home and spend time with their families, but a few will remain in San Marcos. And those who live in dorms may have to move
temporarily.

The policy for most campuses is to only keep a couple of dorms open during the break and charge students on a per-night basis. That's the policy at Texas State, and officials say it seems to work well.

(Dorm guy about international friend)
But some students find it objectionable that they have to pay extra during the break, because they already pay rates ranging from 14-hundred-dollars to 34-hundred-dollars per semester.
(Dorm resident about feeling forced)
(Assistant Director about most
students leaving)
