Texas State is growing and construction on campus is in full swing. Braden Biggers has more on the story.

New student housing is being built and old buildings are being remodeled. The construction boom is one result of Texas State's increased enrollment, which is at an all-time high.
Some areas on campus are now inaccessible because of the construction. Texas State Senior Brandon Klassen has experienced problems getting around campus and is ready for a break from the crowded campus life.

Parking is even more difficult to find. Fenced in construction areas are taking up space where students used to park. Electronic media major Sam Bruce has been forced to walk long distances up steep hills because there aren't enough handicapped parking places for students:

Construction may be an inconvenience to some, but the expansion is necessary to accommodate the rapidly increasing student population. Texas State Freshman Natalie (last name) says the new buildings are good for the university.

Expansion of Bobcat Stadium is part of the university's move to the Western Athletic Conference later this year. For Bobcat Update, I'm Braden Biggers.
