Great to meet and hear stories from so many Spartan alumni at Winter University! It’s clear that Spartans have bold, visionary ideas for the future, and for how we can solve grand challenges. Together, as one team we're not just envisioning a far better world. We're creating it.

Congratulations to Michigan Technological University on achieving R1 status and welcome to Michigan's University Research Corridor! Looking forward to working alongside you as we serve as vital talent activators for the state of Michigan.

One year ?. Forever a Spartan.

Michigan State University is uniquely positioned to lead and shape the future of medical education and biomedical research through integration and collaboration. One Team, One Health will catalyze new opportunities for students, faculty, researchers and staff in ways that will elevate our reputational excellence as a leading global public research university. Through the creation of forward-thinking medical education and research programs, we have an opportunity to address health care workforce shortages in both Michigan and the nation — and equip the next generation of providers to meet society’s unmet and evolving needs and provide the highest quality care.

Promoting the health and wellbeing of Spartans has always been foundational to academic, professional and life success. This is why we are proud to strengthen that commitment by adopting the Okanagan Charter and launching the Spartan Wellbeing Collective, advancing our efforts in a systemic, collective and sustainable way. This step ensures that students, faculty and staff have the support they need—not just to succeed, but to truly flourish and thrive. Together, as one team, we are shaping a healthier future for all.?

Enjoyed celebrating our new endowed chairs and professors at yesterday’s Investiture for Endowed Faculty at the Wharton Center while expressing gratitude to the many benefactors who help ensure MSU is a leading global public research university.

Today we honor the memory of students Arielle Anderson, Brian Fraser and Alexandria Verner as well as all affected by the tragedy that occurred on our campus two years ago. Spartans, I encourage you to take the time and space that you need. We are here for you, and we are Spartans together.

On this Founders Day, we celebrate 170 years of impact at MSU—and Spartans, like the Williamses and Maibachs, who continue to shape our future.
