One of the most magical things about Michigan State University is our campus community. From the moment you become a Spartan, you join a group of individuals with shared goals and a passion for creating a better tomorrow. Through these pursuits, Spartans find themselves coming together, often in unexpected and wonderful ways. As leaves fall and the year slowly comes to a close, we couldn’t be more thankful for the many ways our Spartan community shows up to provide support.
Spartans, no matter what challenges lie ahead, know that the MSU community will be here for you. We’re stronger together, and when you’re a Spartan, you’re always part of something bigger. Photo by Nick Schrader.

As it chimes throughout the day, Beaumont Tower not only keeps time, but serves as a reminder of the care that Spartans feel toward each other and our community. The campus icon was originally conceived by John Beaumont, class of 1882, as a memorial to College Hall, the first building and original classroom on MSU’s campus. During the tower’s cornerstone-laying ceremony, John Beaumont included the 1882 commencement program, giving Beaumont Tower a strong foundation built on the memory of his time at MSU.

In celebration of Dia de los Muertos, the gallery collaborated with Michigan State University’s Chicanx/Latinx Association to present “A Time to Remember and Honor,” showcasing ofrendas and artwork created by artist Alynn Guerra, on display through Dec. 15.

Students enjoy a peaceful meal in the Gallery at Snyder-Phillips. While there are plenty of dining options on campus, few can boast a view of one of campus’s true hidden gems — the RCAH LookOut Gallery, an art gallery showcasing unique and thoughtful art and exhibits, located on the second floor of Snyder-Phillips Hall in the Residential College in the Arts and Humanities. The LookOut Gallery is free to visitors Monday through Friday from noon to 3 p.m. Photo by Nick Schrader.
There’s no better feeling than coming together with fellow Spartans to create something greater than what can be accomplished alone. For the Symphony Orchestra, one such feat is the upcoming concert “Radiant Romanticism,” which will bring Brahms’ “Symphony No. 2” and Dvořák’s “Othello Overture” to life in the Fairchild Theatre on Dec. 1.

As students made final preparations for midterms last week and begin to study for upcoming finals, many students find there’s no better motivation than to team up with a fellow Spartan to tackle study guides, papers and projects. Photo by Nick Schrader.
