Students, staff, and alumni, please join the School of Family & Consumer Sciences on Friday April 26, 2024 from 5 - 8pm for a celebration of the FCS students and faculty at Texas State University. Enjoy speakers from both FCS faculty and students, grab hors d'oeuvres, and celebrate the beauty of our school at "FCS in Bloom".

FCS in Bloom is our signature end of the year symposium and showcase celebrating the graduating seniors and graduate students from across the School of Family and Consumer Sciences!

This is a chance to come together to learn about the amazing work our students have accomplished through viewing their posters and presentations. We welcome current students, faculty, alumni, donors, and their families to join us for an evening of music, dancing, and light refreshments as we learn from our amazing students.
