Students returning to Texas State for the fall semester can count on two things: tests and continued construction.


Construction on and near campus is making it more difficult for students to get to class on time. Some of them have no choice but to find new routes. In the long term, the changes will be beneficial, of course, but for now they create problems.
For example, anyone who lives on North L-B-J will have no choice but to cope with the improvements that engineers have planned for that area. Right now, it's just one big construction zone.

Construction is not limited to streets in San Marcos. Many new apartment complexes are being built to accommodate the university's higher enrollment. One of the projects -- at Top Apartments -- is behind schedule.
-Cole SB-Texas State University is the fourth largest university in the state and still growing, and, as a result, the city of San Marcos has experienced an unprecedented spurt in population. For two years in a row, the city has held the distinction of being the fastest growing small city in America. For Bobcat Update, I'm Claudia Torres.
