Michigan State University Top Questions

The best thing about Michigan State is that I am in an incredible education program. My specialty is Special Education, and my professors are amazing. Another great thing is the school pride. If someone went to Michigan State 20 years ago, and they see you with an MSU shirt on - you are automatically friends! I love it.

The best thing about my school is the diversity. Everwhere you look, there is someone who is different from you and it's a pleasant surprise. My high school was not a very diverse school, so coming here and meeting people from all over the world has been an amazing expereince that I couldn't get from anywhere else.

The best thing about Michigan State University is the sense of community. Everybody I met wanted to be there and welcomed me with open arms. I met so many people that I would of never had a chance to if I did not go here. When I was in the student section at a football games, I felt like I was with my family. We all cheered in unison together and always made an effort to meet the person sitting next to you. The best part about State is that its not just a school but its my home.

I think the best thing about my school would be that we are diverse. I get to take heed from people all over the world and get a perspective from them instead of the media. The past 18 years, I have assumed that whatever the media said about another race was true. I believe that I will hear another side from those people who actually are being thrown under the bus by the media. I just can't wait to hear their side of the story.

Michigan State University has an incredible public policy program in their James Madison Residential College. Students who attend JMC oftentimes go on to incredible law schools in the future, and despite the rigor and difficulty of the courses, learn much more than they would in an ordinary political science curriculum.

The Red Cedar River runs through the center of our campus and much of the architecture on campus dates back to the turn of the previous century.

With every school there is a different atmosphere and of course a big ten school will have a great sports atmosphere. I feel students unit together when It comes to sports. Another thing that is really interesting about this school is how encouraging it is about recycling. It really is amazing. We make the effort to put up signs have recycling areas in a lot of the buildings and have recycling trucks. The effort is really great.

Michigan State is unique in that literally everything you could possibly want to do here is located in one centralized campus instead of multiple, like many large universities. Although our campus is huge, we have a good bus system and it's absolutely beautiful. So, many people (including myself) enjoy walking for the exercise and the sheer entertainment of being on such a wonderful campus!

Our campus has a lot of unique things. It is the second largest campus in the country area wise so there is a lot to explore. I remember driving around one day with my buddy in south campus and we saw that they were having Llama Fest at the MSU Pavilion (Rodeo and horse expo center). We stopped in and it was pretty awesome. They had all sorts of llamas that you could go up and pet. Some of them were dressed up in costumes and they had awards for different categories. It was definitely bizarre, but pretty cool all the same. Other unique things include the new art museum, the Red Cedar river, Beaumont Tower, the Sparty statue, and all of the sports stadiums.

I loved the size of my school. There were endless programs, things to do and opportunities to pursue. My school had everything and you could choose to be in a drama or get into some of the most random clubs. It really let become who you wanted to be.
