I am very proud of you, @faithmataa. You are a “can do” woman, and I can’t wait to see you out there representing @txst as you being this next step in your life’s journey. Beth & I are thinking of you, Tess, and your family tonight. I’m so grateful for this photo with you.🐾🎓💔 – at San Marcos, TX
Tonight @faithmataa graduated from @txst 🥂 she decided to take a picture of her sister Tess with her as she plunged into the river (a school tradition). They had planned to do it together. #uvalde #tessmata #remembertheirnames

I was walking across the campus today, and I passed the spot where I spent my first moments as the @txst president. “What a beautiful campus,” I thought. “No wonder it’s the second most applied to university in the state!” Looking forward to greeting future Bobcats on Saturday!🐾
A record number of prospective students are registered for Bobcat Day on Saturday. We can't wait to help you explore our beautiful campus and speak with faculty, staff, and student representatives from across campus for an inside look. #TXSTNext

New data from @DallasFed shows that general business activity in TX has fallen. There have also been declines in consumer loans, money Texans might borrow for things like cars, vacations, or as TXST prof. @BillChittenden describes it, “basically anything that’s not your mortgage"
The Federal Reserve has raised interest rates over the past year – and that’s squeezing small businesses. “The interest rate last year was 5.8%. This year, I’m paying 10%.” txst.us/3Gnb6dq

This legislation is a game changer - not JUST for @txst, but for the state of Texas, the eighth largest economy in the world. We deserve to have more than only two top-100 research universities. The Texas University Fund will make that happen (not “might” but “WILL”)!🐾 – at San Marcos, TX
