There’s something missing from Sewell Park, people! Spring time tanning will have to wait for now.
With the entire campus closed for now, students will have to adjust to an uncomfortable, yet temporary lifestyle.
The city has closed Sewell Park, among many others for the time being.
While students and professors alike adjust to online classes, campus services are hard at work maintaining the beauty of Texas State.
Unfortunately, no one is allowed to take a dip right now. The good news is less pollution in the river!
It’s off-putting to see such vacancy and desertion everywhere we go, it almost makes me miss not being able to find a spot.
With less traffic on campus, there’s the opportunity for more greenery and vegetation to grow.
As all the parks are being closed down temporarily, local ecosystems are much less directly impacted by human behavior.
Since everyone is stuck at home, there has been a significant drop in carbon emissions released from vehicles, that’s great news for the planet!
With everyone currently on lockdown, some good news is that there has been a worldwide drop in air pollution.
