This year, Spartans from near and far are being asked to “glow” green for Homecoming week! MSU’s Homecoming will take place October 17-22. This year’s theme is “Glow Green, Go White”and the university is hoping to start a new tradition, which calls for Spartans to switch out their porch or house lights to green ones during homecoming week.

While supplies last, the MSU Alumni Association is giving out free green light bulbs. The bulbs will be available for faculty, staff, alumni and fans during normal business hours (8 a.m. – 5 p.m.) at the MSU Alumni Association, located in the stadium tower. After the football game against Michigan on October 15, free bulbs will be available to alumni and fans at the MSU Alumni Association tent, north of the stadium. You also may purchase green light bulbs at all Meijer stores.Continue Reading… Get Ready to Glow Green!

It flows through the historic and central parts of campus, and it’s difficult to pass by without noticing it. From hurried faculty and staff on their way to a class or meeting, to couples enjoying a romantic picnic, the Red Cedar has thousands of people visit each year.Continue Reading… Red Cedar River Memories
