A study proposal on curbing operating costs through fewer scholarships and coaches was adopted, while measures to limit athletic scholarships to tuition, and to cut pre-visit recruitment visits, were rejected. Committees will meet by June to explore options.

Quail hunts run through January in most counties, with extended dates in nine counties west of the Pecos and other regional variants. Duck and goose limits are set by a points system and specify bag limits, and sandhill cranes may be bagged through January 26 across far West Texas and the Panhandle.
