Texas State continues to grow in population. The university's enrollment will likely top 35-thousand students again this semester. With growth, there are issues. Jaclyn Coles has the story:

Anyone who lives off campus needs a way to get here to attend class. That means either riding the bus or driving. But those who ride buses soon realize just how crowded it is. At peak times, they load up fast. And if you drive instead, there's the hassle of finding a parking space. It seems an impossible task -- especially as class time nears.
Students who've encountered overcrowding or the lack of parking spaces are hoping the university comes up with solutions.

Some students say the bus system provides the best option for getting to campus.
SB
The university has a new bus service this semester. The contractor, Transdev, is operating a 45-bus fleet -- 43 of them are new. To pay for the new service, students approved an increase in the bus fee, which now costs 95-dollars a semester. For Bobcat Update, I'm Jaclyn Coles.
