PLANNING FOR THE FALL

Texas State University is planning to return to a sense of normalcy in the fall, aiming to operate classes at 100% capacity.

Gene Bourgeois, university Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs, said Texas State’s decision to expand classes to 100% capacity is based upon discussions with public health officials, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines and COVID-19 vaccination uptake.

“It’s been a long time coming,” Bourgeois said. “We’ve done a lot of planning. We’ve been very successful … in terms of our pandemic responses to date, and because of all of that and because of projections going through the summer, we feel confident about what we’re planning for the fall.”
