Tomorrow Starts Today

Tomorrow Starts Today
March 15, 2025The news is out, and it’s exciting: MSU has officially launched a $4 billion multiyear campaign—our most ambitious to date. Its title, “Uncommon Will. Far Better World.”, is a mantra fitting of Spartans everywhere and of all ages. Through our unique experience and expertise, we work collectively to build a better tomorrow. Your passion and commitment to MSU comes through loud and clear. Every gift of every size carries meaning and impact, and we look forward to a bright future in East Lansing and around the world.
What better way to kick off this new campaign than with Give Green Day? A heartfelt thank you goes out to all the donors and clubs who participated in this year’s event, held on March 11. Your generosity has a direct effect on important resources for current and future Spartans.
We’re inching our way into spring, and this time of year brings some of my favorite campus events. First, we welcome back our alumni leaders for the annual Alumni Volunteer Leader Summit. It’s always inspiring for our alum community board members to reconnect with each other and reacquaint themselves with campus. These Spartans go to great lengths to bring alums together, and we appreciate their hard work on behalf of the university.
Finally, the Izzo Run/Walk/Roll is back for its sixth consecutive year. Lace up and join in on April 27—there’s even a virtual option!
Thanks again for your support, Spartans. We’ll see you this spring.
Go Green!
