A rainbow of flowers bloom on the Bailey Hall Green Roof, a project created by RISE students. The project seeks to learn about the benefits of rooftop gardening, what plants and conditions are ideal for the setting and how we can better care for the environment through sustainable practices.

Intergenerational memories were made last week at Grandparents University, an annual event that welcomes young Spartans ages 8-13 and their grandparents, inviting them to stay on campus and participate in unique experiences together at MSU. Photo by Derrick L. Turner.
Participants in Grandparents University hit the greens for a round of mini-golf near Holmes Hall. The three-day long event is attended by more than 1,000 participants each year, with nearly 200 classes offered by colleges and units to choose from. Courses range from sports and recreation, like archery, to academic topics, like an intro to nuclei and the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams. Photo by Derrick L. Turner.
