Texas State is setting records with this semester's spring enrollment. Matthew Champion has more in this Bobcat Update.
More students than ever are wandering around campus this spring, studying in the library and making their way to classes. The university has reported an enrollment increase of nearly four percent compared to the spring semester a year ago. More than 27-thousand students are currently enrolled at the university. Biology Freshman Blake Brittain says the increase will have a positive effect on his future as a Bobcat.

But students like Public Relations Senior Caleb Hudgens says the record-setting numbers could have a negative impact.

Enrollment is up in all areas this semester, including graduate programs and Texas State's Round Rock campus. University officials also reported the highest-ever fall-to-spring freshman retention rate this year, along with a slight increase in the number of minority students. For Bobcat Update, I'm Matthew Champion.
