Kedzie Reunion
Each year we celebrate and honor the 50-year reunion of our MSU alums. Spartans from the 50-year class are invited to several special events throughout the year, offering opportunities to reconnect with classmates, celebrate MSU, recall your college days and make new memories.
The "Kedzie Reunion" gained its name from Dr. Kedzie in 1929, who began hosting an event for alumni who graduated 50 or more years ago.

The Kedzie Cane
The Kedzie Cane, also known as the “Kedzie Old-Timers Stick,” is a tradition that dates back to 1931. It was in that year that former president, Frank S. Kedzie, donated a cane that was previously owned by his father, Robert Clark Kedzie. The cane itself is 37 inches long, features intricate carvings and is made from coffee wood. Starting in 1929 at the suggestion of Dr. Kedzie, MSU began hosting an event for alumni who graduated 50 or more years ago. It was at the third annual luncheon that the cane was presented to the oldest living alumnus in attendance, Daniel Strange, class of 1867.
