A new 14.5-foot stone sculpture was recently unveiled in MSU's Multicultural Center. Anishinaabe stone sculptor Jason Quigno of the Saginaw Chippewa Tribe designed and created the piece.

In an effort to continue redefining college access and affordability for Michiganders, MSU is expanding its Spartan Tuition Advantage program, which covers the full cost of tuition for all Pell Grant–eligible students who have a family income of $75,000 or less.

"I walked into that stadium not knowing the rules of football. I ended up sitting next to Steve, an MSU alumnus. A stranger who didn't have to spend his Saturday teaching a confused freshman the rules of the game, but did anyway because that's what being part of this community seems to mean.” go.msu.edu/85x5

Student View: What it means to be a Spartan

International student Logan Rizal shares how his first MSU football game and a welcoming group of alumni helped him discover what it means to be a Spartan.

Fueled by payback, No. 2-ranked MSU women's soccer gets on track with a dominant win

At this point in the program's rise, there aren’t many regular season games that get circled on MSU’s calendar. Washington’s visit was one of them.

You would have been appalled how clueless @rickpluta and I were with what was happening around us. Andy just shook his head. You were missed that night! But breaking a huge story!!!

In honor of Justin Verlander's final start today, I'm reposting this blog I wrote from 2013 about how Kwame Kilpatrick caused me to miss attending the game in 2007 when he threw a no-hitter at Comerica Park and my soul subsequently escaped my body. gongwer.com/blog/?postid=208…

Exactly.

It's really kinda crazy how the exact same play was upheld as a touchdown for Nebraska. And that one was *overturned* into an incomplete pass for MSU.

You’ve heard it countless times, but do you know the story behind the song? “Victory for MSU” has resonated across generations of Spartans, and its iconic sound traces back to Leonard Falcone, an Italian immigrant who shaped MSU’s music programs for more than 50 years.

We're just going to watch this on repeat. Ella Janz's header stuns Notre Dame with FOUR. SECONDS. LEFT. Spartans finish the non-con schedule at 4-0-2.

MSU volleyball moves to 4-0 with sweeps over LSU and South Carolina. Also opened the season with a 3-2 win over ACC’s Miami. Really strong start for the Spartans in Kristen Kelsay’s second year. Wins like those help your postseason odds, especially in a grueling B1G.
