8 Must Get Bookstore Items
August 1, 2022
On the campus of the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP), where Bhutanese inspired architecture with themes of orange and blue are highlighted in a sunny city, UTEP students are going back to school. It is a new semester and that means buying textbooks, buying school supplies and maybe even buying the best school outfits for the Fall. But, with colors like orange and blue, finding the best items to show your school pride might be a bit difficult.
While there are definitely some outstanding options like the typical car sticker or even the go-to UTEP water bottle, our team at Minero Magazine thinks that there are 8-must-get bookstore items that UTEP students definitely should not miss out on.
