Increasing tuition costs are an issue on every college student's mind but one Texas State Student is taking a stand to unite others to share their frustrations. Tobin Lavalley has more in this Bobcat Update.
Hannah Durrance has dedicated her free time, between working two jobs and raising three children, to share her story with students on the quad. Hannah is a soon-to-be-homeless single mother who has maxed out her student loans and is just one class short of graduation.

On Friday Hannah and her children held signs in the quad telling their stories and encouraged students to make their own signs.

Hannah says that she has spoken with the University and there are no more financial aid options available to her to finish her final class but she still gets letters from Texas State in the mail like this one.

The Durrance family has been busy packing the things in their home to put into storage and even though they'll be living out of their car until they find a more permanent solution, they say sticking together is the most important thing. For Bobcat Update I'm Tobin Lavalley.
