Unfortunately, for the past few years Texas State has been thought of as a party school. However, it should be known for its ethnic diversity and strong school spirit. We have numerous organizations and clubs that promote and celebrate diversity. Every Friday we have "spirit day" where all of the students wear our school colors to class. It is a great sight to see!

Whenever our school hosts competitions it's always a treat to see all the visitors staring at all the sunbathing college kids in their swimsuits and saying "It's just like a movie. I didn't know things like this existed in real life."
