More Than Just a Place to Crash

Outdoor spaces can really make a difference when you need a break from being inside all day. At Redpoint San Marcos, you’ve got access to outdoor lounges and grilling areas that are perfect for low-key hangouts or weekend cookouts with friends. It’s a chill way to enjoy the weather without having to leave your apartment community. You’ll find plenty of space to spread out inside too, with options for spacious two-, three-, or four-bedroom apartments for rent near TSU. So even when you’re indoors, there’s room to move around and make it feel like home. Whether you’re grilling burgers, catching up with your roommates, or just enjoying some fresh air, those outdoor spots help make life feel a little more relaxed and balanced.

Silo Gallery & Glass Studios in San Marcos, TX

Just a bit outside the main part of town, you’ll find the Silo Gallery & Glass Studios—a creative spot that’s peaceful and full of character. The setting’s part of the charm, with wide open land and quirky buildings that make you want to explore. Inside, there’s a mix of glass art, metalwork, and paintings from local artists. If you’re into handmade pieces or just want something different to do, this place has a relaxed, artsy feel. Sometimes they offer classes or let you watch the artists work, which adds a cool behind-the-scenes vibe. You don’t have to be an expert in art to enjoy it. It’s more about soaking in the creativity and maybe leaving with something unique you won’t find anywhere else.

Texas State Emerges As Leading Candidate for Pac-12 Expansion

This is a pretty wild shift when you think about it. If you’re a fan or even just follow college sports casually, seeing Texas State mentioned as a top pick for a major conference move kind of makes you do a double-take. It’s one of those things that feels exciting but also raises a lot of questions. Like, are they ready for that kind of spotlight? Can they hold their own against bigger programs week after week? On the flip side, it could open up huge opportunities—not just for the football team, but for the whole school. More attention, more funding, maybe better recruits. It changes the way people view the program. If it actually happens, it’ll be interesting to see how they handle that next step.
