WatchThere is something magical about autumn at Michigan State University. Sunshine lights up the beauty of campus while cooler breezes whisper through the trees. And even while we’re shouting, “Go Green!” the leaves instead turn brilliant shades of red, orange and yellow.
This year, fall was even more special because we were able to experience it together. Familiar sounds of the Spartan Drumline practicing, students walking to class and the chiming of the Beaumont Tower bells renewed the Spartan spirit in all of us.
Winter at Michigan State University is enchanting. Snowflakes fall softly, creating stunning snowscapes and quiet calm. Icicles hang from eaves while evergreens and the shoulders of The Spartan statue collect tiny blankets of snow. Occasional bursts of sunlight break through trees, making everything sparkle, while Beaumont Tower stands tall against blustery winds. The warmth of familiar buildings beckons us in from a cold walk across the “tundra.”
