Angelique Paccione

Texas State students have the opportunity to adopt a spot on campus and help keep it beautiful. Angelique (Ang-el-eek) Paccione (Patch-ee-o-nee) has the story.

Student Government created Adopt-a-Spot to encourage students to get involved in making a positive environmental impact on campus. The campus will be divided into 38 sectors. Student organizations, clubs, athletic teams and even groups of friends are allowed to adopt. Those who adopt can choose between smaller, popular areas or larger zones. The areas will go up for re-adoption at the end of each academic year.

Each adopted spot will have a sign to represent its group on campus. Students will be required to work on a project at their site once a month and report back to student government. They will also get to be a part of a larger service opportunity.
SB
Adopt-a-spot is planning to begin adoptions in November. Service organizations on campus are already looking forward to the program.
SB
The Student Government hopes this will create a new tradition on campus.

SU: Student Government is working on a logo for Adopt-a-Spot. Once that is completed, organizations will have the opportunity to adopt a spot on campus on a first come, first serve basis. For Bobcat Update, I'm Angelique Paccione.
