How has the increased enrollment of 35,568 students affected you?
"I don't really think it has affected me as much. I might have more residents as an RA."

(An "RA" is a Resident Assistant placed in residential halls across campus.)

Do you think that the university will continue to grow?
"Yes because that way, when students get degrees from our university, it's more recognized on a nationwide basis."

Did the size of the university influence your decision to enroll at Texas State?
"No, it didn't."

Why did you choose to study at Texas State University?
"We have a really good chemistry program at the department."
