The South By Southwest festival and Texas State's spring break won't occur during the same week this year. This could mean some students and faculty will miss out on the annual showcase in Austin. Geronimo Perez has the story.
Spring break is approaching and the same is true for this year's South By Southwest festival. The annual conference in Austin showcases music, film and interactive media, which means opportunities for Texas State students to intern and volunteer.

However, this year, the festival is scheduled the week BEFORE Texas State's spring break. This means some students and faculty will have to maneuver around school schedules to partake in South-by-Southwest.

Some professors say they plan to excuse students if they can provide documentation showing they are are attending the festival for academic reasons.

Some students will just have to make do, or just plan to attend the festival next year instead. For Bobcat Update, I'm Geronimo Perez.
