Snowy conditions only highlight the beautiful collegiate gothic style of Yakeley-Gilchrist Hall. The halls, joined in the middle, are named for Elida Yakeley and Maude Gilchrist, two Spartan women who contributed to the presence and power of women on MSU’s campus in the early 1900s. Photo by Derrick L. Turner.
The crosswalk between the Biomedical and Physical Sciences and Chemistry buildings catches a glimmer of sun. The BPS Building is the largest academic facility on campus and is linked by skyways and at the basement level to the Chemistry and Biochemistry Buildings. Photo by Derrick L. Turner.

Sidewalks and footpaths form a heart near West Circle on campus. Photo by Derrick L. Turner.
The John A. Hannah statue regards a campus visitor. Hannah served as MSU’s president from 1941 to 1969 and helped build MSU’s reputation as a world-class university. Photo by Derrick L. Turner.
MSU's campus has 124 miles of sidewalks, 83 miles of roadway and 28,000 parking spaces to plow and salt. The hardworking team at Infrastructure, Planning and Facilities does a great job keeping them clear for all of us. Photo by Derrick L. Turner.
Though most of Michigan has frozen over, the Red Cedar River is still going strong near Wells Hall, making a magical evening scene. Photo by Derrick L. Turner.
The Spartan Statue watches over campus. The original Spartan Statue was commissioned in 1941 by President John Hannah and was made out of ceramic by artist Leonard Jungwirth. The Spartan that stands near Demonstration Field today is a replica created in 2005, cast in bronze to preserve the Spartan legacy for decades to come. Photo by Derrick L. Turner.
Spartan Stadium looks solemn dusted by snow. With the 2021 football schedule recently announced, we can’t wait until the stadium is full of energy and excitement this fall. Photo by Derrick L. Turner.
Wells Hall has some impressive architectural details. Wells Hall is notably home to the university’s language departments, including English; linguistics and Germanic, Slavic, Asian and African languages; romance and classical studies; and the English Language Center. Photo by Lisa Mulcrone.
The MSU Women's Rowing Team practices in IM-Circle, wearing masks and physically distancing in order to practice together in person. The rowing team is preparing for their 2021 season, which begins in March. Photo by Derrick L. Turner.
