A new minor in African-American studies will be implemented at Texas State this fall. Bobcat Update's Alex Gibbs has the story.

The minor will require 18 hours for the study of African-American culture and history. Communications Senior Lecturer Marsha Burney says having the new minor will provide a stepping stone toward a more diverse and inclusive campus.

Director of Student Diversity and Inclusion Sherri Benn says that while she's proud of the new minor, there's still work to be done.

Once the minor is available, courses will include such courses as The African-American Experience in Texas and Politics, Power, and Identity in Hip Hop Literature. The full list of courses can be viewed online at Cats-web. For Bobcat Update, I'm Alex  Gibbs.
