I feel that I was able to get a quality education and made lifelong friends in the process. To me college is more than just studying for a career. It is about learning about yourself and the environment around you. What I really loved about Michigan State was the camaraderie between everyone at the school. It was almost as if we were a big family. All of us come from different places and different backgrounds, but we are all Spartans. The school itself has a really big campus with many students. Perhaps the biggest shock was walking into a lecture that was twice the size of my graduating class. Don't be surprised if you have at least 500 people in your 100 level courses. The classes get smaller as you progress through college. There are many different resources to help you through the first few years so you shouldn't be too overwhelmed. One of the advantages of having a large student body is having many different organizations and extracurriculars. I am a member of 4 different organizations and regularly attend sporting events. The party and bar scene is better than any college I have been to. With fun parties, attractive girls, and a great downtown, East Lansing is an amazing college town. Even if you aren't much of a party person, there are many other concerts, sporting events, and other activities to go to. Attending sporting events are among the top things to do at MSU. Football, Basketball and hockey are the top events to go to. Izzone basketball tickets are the hottest tickets on campus, our hockey team recently won the national championship, and our football team is poised to make a turnaround with a new head coach. Overall, coming to Michigan State was the best decision I ever made. This institution has given so much to me that I cannot thank them enough. I learned more than just finance or accounting principle. I learned more about myself and about those around me. Even though I might leave East Lansing when I graduate, I will be a Spartan for life like many others. If you are at another part of the country wearing Michgan State clothing, don't be surprised if you hear someone yell GO GREEN! Campus Aesthetics: A+, Individual Value: B- Have a Question?

My Life BEFORE Michigan State University: I'm from Southern California. I'm Hispanic. Had no Father figure whatsoever in my life. Southern California made me superficial. Money, Cars, Social Status consumed my mind,body and soul. I was ignorant. I hated life. I had no confidence. I thought that EVERYONE was better than me. I had the lowest self-esteem ever. I had no self-respect. I was scatter brained. I had no direction. I always took up stereotypical labor jobs because thats what I thought my self-worth was. I was always, always depressed. I contemplated Suicide many times. I thought that the white man was always here to hold hispanics down and I also thought that the white man had everything. and the list can go on and on...... My Life AFTER Michigan State University: I'm still from Southern California I'm still Hispanic I consider MSU a stepfather to me because of the experiences and education that it has provided me. I am now a humble and grounded person. I Look forward to Life now I Look Forward to MY Future I found MY Self-Confidence. I have self-respect. I have purpose. I have direction. I have substance. My newly found confidence has helped me to overcome depression. I now find myself applying to jobs with starting salaries of $60,000+ I realize that white America is not here to hold minorities down. The student body is mostly white and I have made many great friends. I never experienced any racism. If anything I realized that there are a lot of white Americans who are poor and who are struggling to make it through college. It was an eye opener for me. Overall I cannot put a price tag on my experiences at MSU. It changed my life. I feel that I could not have gotten these life changing experiences from most other universities. I did have tough times but I stuck it out. I learned perseverance. I was better for it in the end and believe me I went through some sh!t but I made it through and got my degree. I found who I was in the process. Go Green!Go White!Go Spartans! oh yeah, two more things, MSU has Tom Izzo, ha, he's the sh!t and MSU has the best looking white chicks ever.

Coming to State has been one of the best decisions I've ever made! The campus is huge, but offers many great opportunities to explore and meet new people. There are campus activities and movies EVERY weekend for free, as well as Grand River, a stretch of shops and restaurants which cater to anyone's tastes. Our study abroad program is world renowned, and our school spirit is awesome during football season. I've met a great group of friends who have followed me into my third year of school, and I'll be sad to leave in 2007! University Resource Use: A+, Collaboration/Competitive: C Have a Question?

What I do know a bit about is their physics and astronomy department. I don't knowledge to compare it with other schools, but it is a fantastic program. READ THIS IF YOU WANT To KNOW ABOUT PHYSICS The physics department is bolstered by the presence of the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory, a premier facility for the research of rare isotopes (for studying questions like the origin of the heavy elements). What's more, it is possible for undergraduate students to get involved with research. The department is large but it has fantastic professors. Students seem friendly, from what I hear from the upperclassmen that I know there is much working together so it's not likely to be cut-throat. Moreover, I believe the program commands a bit of respect; if you do well, get involved and establish relationships with some professors you will have a solid application if you wish apply to grad school-so don't over look this place because it is not one of the "big name" universities. READ THIS IF YOU DON'T CARE TO KNOW ABOUT PHYSICS OR IF YOU ARE READING IT ALL State has a beautiful campus, many gardens, innumerable trees, and varying architecture. It's got a planetarium-how cool is that?-which is pretty neat, I've gone there so I know. The school of music has concerts which are most often free too. Those are some things you don't really hear about- intrinsic benefits of going there. The Lyman Briggs School of Science is a good program for those interested in science, especially pre-professional paths. Classes are in the dorm in which you'll probably live as part of the program, and it is quite convenient to be a flight of stairs away from the chem lab...if the lab is at 8AM. In sum, don't sell this school short, its worth a good look and so far I'm quite happy I went there. Education Quality: A+, Scholastic Success: F Have a Question?
