National Hispanic Heritage Month is underway. Bobcat Update's Claudia Torres takes a look at what that means to Texas State.

Culture. Heritage. Independence. These are just some of the aspects of the Hispanic culture that are being recognized during the month-long celebration. Texas State is involved in a big way, which seems fitting -- the Hispanic student body population is the largest minority group on campus.

During this month, the Center for the Study of the Southwest is presenting a lecture series and an exhibit highlighting Latinos and Sports in the Southwest.
The Wittliff Collection has more than 20-thousand prints from distinguished Mexican authors, photographers and painters.
While there are many Heritage Month events planned at Texas State, some believe the effort doesn't go far enough.
