Common Experience 2010-2011

The Common Experience is a year-long initiative of Texas State University-San Marcos designed to cultivate a common intellectual conversation across the campus, to enhance student participation in the intellectual life of the campus, and to foster a sense of community across our entire campus and extended community.

The Common Experience theme for 2010-2011 is "Sustainability: Science, Policy, and Opportunity," an interdisciplinary theme that affects all students, staff, faculty, and administrators of Texas State, as well as the San Marcos community.
