More than any other themed issue or special publication we assemble each year, the San Antonio Current’s College Guide relies on the strengths and ideas of our bright-eyed and bushy-tailed interns. Collectively representing local colleges and universities alongside out-of-town institutions like the University of Texas at Austin and Texas A&M-College Station, our talented summer crew surprised and impressed us with stories both witty (Tinder etiquette, perfecting the passive-aggressive Post-it Note, etc.) and practical (from backpacking on a budget to making the most of your student ID). Our biggest (and hopefully best) College Guide yet, the 2015-2015 edition also features first-time collaborations with such campus publications as Logos (University of the Incarnate Word), The Paisano (UTSA), The Ranger (SAC) and The Trinity Perspective (Trinity University).
