Maggie Ximenes

A decision may come soon on student government legislation that would remove fluoride from campus drinking water. Maggie Ximenes has more.

Texas State students rely on campus drinking water, but some members of student government do not want fluoride to be in it.
SB
Stand up: The San Marcos River is such a huge part of life for San Marcos. The fact that the city infiltrates the drinking water with fluoride raises concern for some citizens.

Others, though, believe fluoride is harmless and not a cause for concern.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency, fluoride is voluntarily added to some cities' drinking water to prevent cavities. The E-P-A also states too much fluoride can lead to the risk of bone fractures and developing pits in tooth enamel.
That's reason enough for some in student government to call for the removal of fluoride.
SB
The Student Government is asking for comments on the legislation before any votes are taken. For Bobcat Update, I'm Maggie Ximenes (he-men-es)
